The first step which involves changing the operator to multiplication of the reciprocal of the second fraction is when dividing.

If given

5/2 ÷ 1/2

The first step is to multiply with the reciprocal of the second fraction

= 5/2 × 2/1

= (5 × 2) / (2 × 1)

= 10/2

= 5

Therefore, when dividing fraction, we multiply with the reciprocal of the second fraction.

D. Dividing

Step-by-step explanation:

When we divide a number ( whether fraction or not ) by a fraction, then we first change the operator to multiplication and  reciprocate the second fraction.

Let's take an example:

Suppose we have h division problem in fraction as

Then, our first step would be to change division operator (÷) by multiplication operator (×) and then ×reciprocate the second fraction , so the next step will become , Now cancel out 3 and 2 from both numerator and denominator , we get

i.e.

Hence, the correct option is "D. Dividing".

the answer is d on edge
