Given the general rule for the division of fractions:


\begin{gathered} (a)/(b)(\cdot)/(\cdot)(c)/(d)=(a\cdot d)/(b\cdot c) \\ b,d\\e0 \end{gathered}

in this case, we can use the formula in the following way:


(11)/(12)(\cdot)/(\cdot)(4)/(5)=(11\cdot5)/(12\cdot4)=(55)/(48)

therefore, the answer is 55/48
