\huge{\boxed{(1)/(2)\ \text{of a day}}}


1 / (1)/(2) = 2, so there are two halves in one whole. This means we can just multiply
(1)/(4) by two to find how much of a day Aasha spent on her science project.


(1)/(4) * (2)/(1) = (2)/(4)

Divide both the numerator and the denominator by
2 to simplify the answer.


(2 / 2)/(4 / 2) = \boxed{(1)/(2)}
