The reciprocal method is the fundamental approach for fraction division. When dividing fractions, you follow these steps: First, keep the first fraction as it is. Second, change the division sign to multiplication. Third, flip (invert) the second fraction. Finally, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together, then simplify if needed. For example: 3/4 ÷ 2/5 = 3/4 × 5/2 = 15/8.
