A rational number is one which can be represented using fractions. The opposite of division is multiplication and vice versa. Knowing this information, you can easily go about turning a division of two fractions into the multiplication of two fractions.
Ex.
(1/2) / (3/4) = ?
multiply the denominator of your fraction by the reciprocal of the denominator.
(1/2)*(4/3) / (3/4)*(4/3)
(4/6) / 1 = 4/6
So when dividing rational numbers, you can multiply the denominator by its reciprocal. This would be an example of converting a division problem into a multiplication one

To divide rational numbers, you turn the division problem into a multiplication problem by flipping the second rational number. Then you go ahead and multiply the tops and bottoms together to get your answer. If you can simplify your problem before multiplication, you can go ahead and do so to make your problem easier.
