standard_description: Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having opposite directions or values (e.g., temperature above/below zero, elevation above/below sea level, credits/debits, positive/negative electric charge); use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world contexts, explaining the meaning of 0 in each situation.

Dan observes that $$\frac{6}{10}\div \frac{2}{10} = 6 \div 2$$ He says,
I think that if we are dividing a fraction by a fraction with the same denominator, then we can just divide the numerators.
Is Dan’s conjecture true for all fractions? Explain how you know.
