Dividing Fractions
Does anyone know of an applet or animation online that clearly demonstrates the process of dividing fractions? None of the textbooks I've seen make any effort to depict it graphically. They do it for multiplication, but then bail out on division. I can draw it for individual cases, but I would really like something more dynamic, so that students can investigate multiple examples for themselves.

Check out National Library of Virtual Manipulatives. There's a fraction bars applet that might work.
There is also visual fractions that you might try.
