Let’s take some examples
2 ÷ 3/7
= 2 × 7/3
= (2 × 7)/3
= 14/3
3 ÷ 4 / 3
= 3 × 3/4
= 9/4
2/3 ÷ 3
= 2/3 ÷ 3/1
= 2/3 × 1/3
= 2/(3 × 3)
= 2/9
3 / 11 ÷ 5
= 3/11 ÷ 5/1
= 3/11 × 1/5
= 3/(11 × 5)
= 3/55
8/3 ÷ 2 / 7
= 8/3 × 7/2
= (8 × 7)/(3 × 2)
= (4 × 7)/3
= 28/3
1 / 1 3 ÷ 3 / 2
= 1/13 × 2/3
= 2/(13 × 3)
= 2/39
2/11 ÷ 3 / 4
= 2/11 × 4/3
= (2 × 4)/(11 × 3)
= 8/33
