To find the quotient of fractions, you need to divide the numerator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second fraction, and the denominator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction.

So, the quotient of 1/2 and 12/7 is (1/2) / (12/7).

Next, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

(1/2) * (7/12) = (1 * 7) / (2 * 12) = 7/24.

Therefore, the quotient of 1/2 and 12/7 is 7/24.

To divide fractions, you need to multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

So, the division of 2/3 and 12/19 is (2/3) / (12/19).

Next, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

(2/3) * (19/12) = (2 * 19) / (3 * 12) = 38/36.

We can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.

38/36 = (19/18) / (2/2) = 19/18.

Therefore, the quotient of 2/3 and 12/19 is 19/18.
