To divide fractions, you can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and denominator.
So in this case, we have:
2/3 ÷ 12/19 = 2/3 * 19/12
Now we can multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:
(2 * 19) / (3 * 12) = 38/36
The fraction 38/36 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
(38 ÷ 2) / (36 ÷ 2) = 19/18
Therefore, 2/3 ÷ 12/19 is equal to 19/18.
