When dividing by a fraction, it is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal (the fraction flipped)

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\div\frac{2}{3}=\frac{1}{2}\times\frac{3}{2}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]


3/4 is the answer.

Hope this helps!

You have to take the reciprocal of 2/3 which is 3/2. So it’s 1/2 multiplied by 3/2 :)
