All you have to do is change the whole number to a fraction. Say you have 4 divided by 1/2. All you have to do to make a whole number a fraction is put it over 1. So now you would have 4/1 (4 being the numerator) divided by 1/2. When you divide fractions always remember this; Keep, Switch, Flip. Keep 4/1, Flip the division sign to multiplication, and Flip 1/2 to make it 2/1. Then you multiply the numerators and the denominators. So 4/1 * 2/1 = 8/1. Hope this helped.
