What is the simplified form of ( equation below)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \frac{ x }{ 2 } }{ \frac{ 4 }{ 2x } }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first, you know that you can turn the bottom fraction (4/2x) into multiplication so that your equation becomes (x/2)*(2x/4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah then it'd turn into so then itd be x3/8?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you're forgetting that you haven't factored the 2 out yet, look at your numerator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oooh x/2*2(x)/4 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then x^2/4 would be my final answer right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes
