The problem 2 1/2 is asking you: "How many halves are in 2?" The answer is 4, because each unit (1) is made up of two halves, and there are 2 units total: 2 halves/1 unit * 2 units = 4 halves. Try thinking about this same equation in terms of cups of water: How many half cups of water are in 2 cups of water? You could pour 2 half cups of water into each cup of water which means you are basically adding them, and you have two cups: 2 halves/1 cup * 2 cups = 4 halves. All of this means that when the fraction you are dividing by is between 0 and 1, the answer will always be larger than the original number! This is true whether you are dividing whole numbers or fractions by a fraction. Therefore, dividing by a fraction can be accomplished by multiplying by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of a fraction (also called its "multiplicative inverse") is just the fraction turned upside down, so that the numerator and denominator have switched places. In a moment, we are going to divide fractions by fractions by finding the reciprocal of the second fraction and multiplying them together, but let's look at some reciprocals first: The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. The reciprocal of 7/5 is 5/7. The reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1, or 2. In order, the steps are: Leave the first fraction in the equation alone. Turn the division sign into a multiplication sign. Flip the second fraction over (find its reciprocal). Multiply the numerators (top numbers) of the two fractions together. This result will be the numerator (top portion) of your answer. Multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) of the two fractions together. The result will be the denominator of your answer. Simplify your fraction by reducing it to the simplest terms. We will begin by leaving the first fraction alone, and changing the division sign to a multiplication sign: 1/3 2/5 = becomes: 1/3 * __ = Now we flip the second fraction (2/5) over to find its reciprocal, 5/2: 1/3 * 5/2 = Now multiply the numerators (top numbers) of the two fractions, 1*5 = 5. 1/3 * 5/2 = 5/ Now multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) of the two fractions, 3*2 = 6. We now have: 1/3 * 5/2 = 5/6 This particular fraction cannot be simplified further, so we have our answer. "Dividing fractions, as easy as pie, Flip the second fraction, then multiply. And don't forget to simplify, Before it's time to say goodbye." Another helpful saying that tells you what to do with each part of the equation is: "Leave Me (the first fraction), Change Me (the division symbol), Turn Me Over (the second fraction)."

Summary: Think about what dividing by a fraction means. Understand that dividing is the opposite of multiplying. Memorize the following steps for dividing a fraction by a fraction. Work through these steps on the example 1/3 2/5. Try remembering the following rhyme to help you remember:

Different landlords and property managers may have different expectations for their tenants. Most leases require their tenants to leave rental units clean and undamaged beyond "ordinary wear and tear." While "ordinary wear and tear" can be hard to define, it generally refers to damage that occurs as a result of regular use of a space or appliance, as opposed to damage that results from carelessness, neglect, or intentional abuse. Depending on local landlord-tenant polity, your landlord or property manager may or may not want you to repair minor damage to the property, such as nail holes or chipped paint. Make note of any areas that particularly need to be cleaned, such as smudged or stained walls, dirty cabinets, dirty pet areas, and grimy or mildewed kitchen and bathroom surfaces. Make a list of any notable damage to your unit, such as holes in the screens, missing or damaged blinds, scratches or gouges in the hardwood floors, chipped paint, or marks on the walls that cannot be easily cleaned off. Check your light fixtures, smoke detectors, fridge, stove, and any other appliances that belong to the property in order to make sure that they are working and in good condition. This way you can avoid any unpleasant surprises during the move-out inspection. In general, it is the responsibility of the landlord or property manager to make major repairs or replace broken appliances. However, it is the tenant's responsibility to inform the landlord of these problems as they occur.
Summary: Review the move-out policy in your lease. Examine your apartment for dirt. Examine your apartment for damage. Make sure your appliances are functioning properly. Talk to your landlord about any damage or problems you find.
