I filter the spectra to match the resolution and shift them slightly if needed to line them up before division. With MILES spectra the match is generally very good then and little editing is needed (I edit out any artifacts rather than choosing points on the curve as that way I can smooth less and include more subtle effects in the instrument response.  eg as here)
