Answer:


(3)/(16)

Explanation:

This can be changed into the following equation:


(3)/(4) ÷ 4 =


(3)/(4)÷
(4)/(1)

Step 1 - Flip the second fraction so the numerator is the denominator:


(4)/(1) becomes
(1)/(4)

Step 2 - Swap the division sign for the multiplication sign and multiply the two numerators together as well as the two denominators:


(3)/(4) * (1)/(4)


(3 * 1)/(4 * 4) =
(3)/(16)

This cannot be simplified so the answer is:


(3)/(16)

Hope this helps!
