\frac{ (4)/(9)} {x}=12\\\\(4)/(9)=12x\\\\(4)/(9)/ (12)/(1) =x\\\\(4)/(9)* (1)/(12) =x\\\\ (4)/(108) =x\\\\(1)/(27)=x

For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.

We have then:

x: unknown number

We now write the expression that models the problem:


((4)/(9))/(x) = 12

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:


(4)/(9)=12x


(4)/(9(12))=x


x=(4)/(108)


x=(1)/(27)

Answer:

4/9 divided by 1/27 equals 12
