Dividing by a fraction is the same thing as multiplying with the reciprocal of the fraction.
Thus, dividing
#1/10 -: 6/19#
is the same thing as multiplying
#1/10 times 19/6#
Now, multiplying two fractions means multiplying the numerators and multiplying the denominators.
In total, we have:
#1/10 -: 6/19 = 1/10 times 19/6 = (1 times 19) / (10 times 6) = 19 / 60#
