To rewrite a division of fractions as a multiplication, flip the numerator and the denominator of the divisor:


(2)/(9)/(4)/(9)=(2)/(9)*(9)/(4)

Then, multiply the numerators and the denominators:


(2)/(9)*(9)/(4)=(2*9)/(9*4)=(18)/(36)

The GCF of 18 and 36 is 18. Then:


(18)/(36)=(18/18)/(36/18)=(1)/(2)

Therefore, the answer is:


(2)/(9)/(4)/(9)=(1)/(2)
