Division is the same thing as multiplying by the reciprocal
and the reciprocal of a fraction is the fraction with numerator and denominator reversed (assuming you are not trying to divide by zero).

So
(1/2) div (sqrt(3)/2)

= (1/2) xx 1/(sqrt(3)/2)
or
(1/cancel2) xx (cancel2/sqrt(3))

= (1/sqrt(3))
