you can simply 1/8*4/3 crosscancle and get 4/6 because 4 gose into 4 1 time and 4 gose into 8 2 time so 1 x 4=4nd 2times

[1 / 8] ÷ [3 / 4]

When dividing fractions, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

So, [1 / 8] ÷ [3 / 4] = [1 / 8] × [4 / 3]

From there, multiply as you would normally. Then reduce it to lowest terms.

4 / 24 = 1 / 6

Therefore, the answer is 1 / 6.
