Remember:
Two numbers are reciprocals if their product is 1; flip a fraction to find its reciprocal.
To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal.
Rewrite mixed numbers as improper fractions before dividing.
Dividing by a fraction less than 1 gives a larger quotient.
Check a quotient by multiplying it by the divisor.
