Question

Now im really confused

Answer 1

Try applying the rule of division: x/y=x*(1/y)

Answer 2

hmmm

Answer 3

If we are given (a/b) /(c/d) we can say that we have - a/b x d/c

Answer 4

All together i would get 1/60 but that is not an answer choice

Answer 5

notice this idea:
\[ \frac{ \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{5}{8} } \]
multiply top and bottom by the same thing: 8/5
\[ \frac{ \frac{1}{2}\cdot \frac{8}{5}}{\frac{5}{8}\cdot \frac{8}{5} } \]
now simplify top and bottom

Answer 6

the bottom becomes 1 and dividing by 1 can be ignored.
we just have the top (simplified)

Answer 7

4/5

Answer 8

yes.
the idea I posted is usually simplified to the rule
multiply the top by the "flipped" bottom

Answer 9

wow thank you im taking notes right now
