If you are dividing common fraction, multiply by the reciprocal:

14/33  ÷  70/11  =  14/33  x  11/70

See what you can cancel:  7  goes into both  14 (2 times)  and  70 (10 times):

=  2/33  x  11/10  

Now,  2  goes into both  2 (once) and into 10 (5 times):

=  1/33  x  11/5

And,  11 goes into both  11 (once)  and  33 (three times):

=  1/3  x  1/5

=  1/15
