What is a good algorithm for dividing fractions?
  Access full lesson containing this video at: www.yourteacher.com Students learn to divide fractions by first changing the division sign to multiplication and flipping the second fraction. For example, to simplify 7/12 divided by 7/9, first change the division sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction, to get 7/12 x 9/7. Next, multiply the fractions by first cross-canceling, then multiplying across the numerators and across the denominators….
Divide and conquer algorithm – In computer science, divide and conquer ( D&C) is an important algorithm design paradigm based on multi-branched recursion. A divide and conquer algorithm works by recursively breaking down a problem into two or more sub-problems of the same (or related) type, until these become simple enough..
