Keep, change, flip, yeah that's the action,
Everybody's gonna know how we're dividing fractions.

Dividing fractions is easy, that's no lie,
You just flip one, yep, then you multiply.
Don't flip both because that'd be strange,
You need to keep one exactly the same.
Yeah, then the sign gets changed,
Division to multiplication, that's okay.
Then flip the second fraction like you're on a grill,
We multiply what's left, that's really real.
Take 3⁄5 ÷ 2⁄3,
Keep, change, flip, that's the word.
Keep 3⁄5 the same,
Change the sign so we multiply, that's the game.
Flip 2⁄3, we get 3⁄2,
Then we can multiply, and so should you.
3 × 3 = 9, 2 × 5 = 10,
9⁄10, can't reduce it, that's the end.
Why do we flip it? I'll explain the math,
Dividing by 2 is the same as multiplying by half,
20 students in your class ÷ 2
Would be 10 students, or we could do
20 × 1⁄2 = 10,
You'll see you'll get the same thing at the end.
Dividing is multiplying by the reciprocal,
Keep, Change, Flip, yeah, that's the simple rule.
Keep, change, flip, yeah that's the action,
