We want to do the following division:


(10/9)/(22/9)

And in order to do this we can do the following operation:


(10\cdot9)/(22\cdot9)=(10)/(22)

And now we can simplify dividing the numerator and denominator by 2 and we got:


(10/2)/(22/2)=(5)/(11)

And the solution for this case would be 5/11
