Step 1 :To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and the denominator.
Step 2 :So, the reciprocal of \(\frac{1}{4}\) is \(\frac{4}{1}\) or 4.
Step 3 :Therefore, the problem becomes \(\frac{1}{2} \times 4\).
Step 4 :The result of the division \(\frac{1}{2} \div \frac{1}{4}\) is \(\boxed{2}\).
