Sometimes it is a good idea to teach the procedure first as long as you back it up with an explanation. When I teach students how to divide by a fraction I always teach them the "Times N Turn" procedure ("TNT") first but then I point out that it makes sense because 2 divided by 1/2 is really asking how many times can you take a half away from 2, just like 6 divided by 3 means how many times can I take three away from six. Division is just glorified subtraction and multiplication is just glorified addition.
