You can put this solution on YOUR website! When you want to devide two fractions, take the reciprocal of the second fraction. That means flip it over. Then multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.
4/9 divided by 2/5 is 4/9 times 5/2.
The answer is thusly 20/18 or simplified 10/9, which is the mixed number 1 and 1/10.
