  5. Vocabulary reciprocal

  6. Reciprocalscan help you divide by fractions. Two numbers are reciprocalsor multiplicative inversesif their product is 1. The reciprocal of is 3 because 1 3 1 3 3 1 3 3 1 3 1. = · = = · 3 1 3 2 ÷ = 2 · 3 = 6 Dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.

  7. Additional Example 1: Dividing Fractions Divide. Write each answer in simplest form. 2 5 3 7 ÷ A. 3 7 5 2 2 5 2 5 3 7 ÷ = Multiply by the reciprocal of . · · 5 3 7 = · 2 1 14 15 14 or 1 = 3 8 B. ÷ 12 3 8 1 Multiply by the reciprocal of 12. 3 8 · ÷ = 12 12 1 1 3 8 Simplify. · = 12 4 1 = 32
