Question 19

(A/D)/(C/B) =

Select one:

a. AB/CD

b. AC/BD

c. AD/BC

d. BC/AD

Answer 1

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal.

The reciprocal is the flipped fraction. (Swap the numerator and denominator).

Therefore, (A/D) / (C/B) = (A/D) * (B/C)

When multiplying fractions, we multiply straight across. Numerator * Numerator and Denominator * Denominator.

(A/D) * (B/C) = (A*B) / (D*C)

Since order does not matter in multiplication, our answer is letter a.
