Answer:

1/16

Explanation:

if you do Keep, Change, Flip, you get 1/16. So what you do is you lay out 1/4 divided by 4/1. You KEEP the first fraction, CHANGE the division sign into a multiplication sign, and then FLIP the 4/1 into 1/4. Then all you have to do is multiply 1 times 1, and then 4 times 4. Hope this helps :)
