    2. Find the reciprocal of the divisor, or second fraction.

    3. Multiply the numerators together.

    4. Multiply the denominators together.

    5. Simplify the answer if possible.

    6. Determine if the answer is positive or negative using the sign rules.

    Show your work:

    -4/5 divided by 2/1

    -4/5 divided 1/2

    -4 * 1 = -4

    5 *  2 = 10

    Simplify:

    -4/10 = -2/5
