Do you know how to divide fractions?



We sure do! We know how to Keep It, Switch It, Flip It!

Keep it = keep the first fraction the way it is!

Switch it = change the sign from division to multiplication!

Flip it = flip the last fraction upside down!

Then, find the product.

When I student taught in 8th grade with the LOVELY Leslie Lance and Tracey Kelley I learned this song. I was hoping I could use it when I taught and sure enough we cover this standard in 5th grade!

Happy Monday!
