Question

What is 2÷1/4? help me...

Answer 1

You have to divide

`2/(1)/(4)`

When you divide by fractions, you have to invert the fraction on the denominator place.

`(1)/(4)\rightarrow(4)/(1)=4`

This inverted fraction is called a reciprocal fraction.

Once you've obtained the reciprocal fraction you have to multiply it by the numerator of the fraction:

`2/(1)/(4)=\text{ 2}\cdot4=8`
