is the 22/45 over the 14/25?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes buddy
OpenStudy (anonymous):
22/45 divided by 14/25
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(22/45) / (14/25) = (22/45) x (25/14)
cross multiply and simplify.
OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah- NO idea where i came up with that.
what you ACTUALLY have to do is just multiply them as fractions once you flip the division into a multiplication problem.
(22/45) x (25/14) = 55/63
think of it the same as doing (1/2) * (1/3) = 1/6
