so we shall do this like!

 

1/7 ÷ 1/20

  

(so now first we will reciprocate the second fraction aswell change the division sign to multiplication one)

 

= 1/7 * 20/1      (and now simply reduce then or just multiply if they cant be reduced)

 

= 20 / 7  

 

and now i hope u can divide this and do the last step on your own!

OK so you have 1/7 divided by 1/20

You are going to Keep 1/7 and then change the division sign to a multiplcation sign then you will flip the 1/20 to 20/1

 

So that's 1/7 * 20/1 and that equals 20/7. The reduced answer is 2 6/7
