Dividing fractions with a visual model

Visual model for dividing fractions.
This video goes along with Math standard "MGSE6.NS.1 Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving
division of fractions by fractions, including reasoning strategies such as using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem."

You can divide fractions by drawing boxes.
The denominator of the dividend tells you the number of vertical columns.
The divisor tells you how many horizontal rows you should draw.

How do you conceptually explain it? I am trying to teach it to my 6th-grade students. I see it is a cheat but i don't know how to conceptualize it and explain why this works.
