A÷b÷c = or ≠a÷c÷b?

I find it difficult to calculate the reciprocal and accidentally came across a theory how one could also calculate if one has the fraction 5÷3 and needs to divide it by 6. I believe one can do 5÷6 and then divide by 3, so 5÷6÷3 = 5÷3÷6

Is that correct? If not, please show and explain using a concrete example. Thank you.

Yeah, it’s true.

This is the Communative Law of Multiplication and the division is the same as the multiplication with the reciprocal of the number.

What does my answer have to do with head Calculation? But “dry” likes to, even if you don’t really know what to start with the answer.
