You flip the 3/4. So it's 4/3. Then you multiply. Thats basicly how all division works. Flipping the last fraction and multiplying.

1/2 divided by 3/4 is 1/2 x 4/3. dividing fractions is multiplying by the reciprocal. simplify it and you get 1 divided by 2/3 so your answer is 2/3.

its simple all u do is KEEP-SWITCH-FLIP so if its 1/2 divided by 3/4 you would keep the 1/2 as is then you would change the division sign to a multiplication sign for the FLIP and for the SWITCH you would just switch 3/4 to 4/3 and multiply the numerator [top] and denominator [bottom]. you would end up with 4 over 6 reduce both by 2 and get 2 over 3.

1/2 / 3/4 is basically saying

Just multiply the top ones and the bottom ones to get:
4/6 or 2/3
