LOL

btw, @ person who asked the question, do you know hwo to divide fractions/multiply

AZ · Answer

$\dfrac{a}{b} \div \dfrac{c}{d} = \dfrac{a}{b} \times \dfrac{d}{c}$

remember 4 can be re-written as $\dfrac{4}{1}$

and lastly

$ \dfrac{a}{b} \times \dfrac{d}{c} = \dfrac{ad}{bc}$

AZ · Answer

so you have to flip the second fraction and then you can multiply the fractions
