Answer:

1/10

Explanation:

1)Draw the fractions.

2) Since you are basically dividing, divide 2

into 4 and your answer should be 2, cross

out 2 and put I because 2 into 2 goes one time,

and cross out 4 and put 2 because 2 into 4 goes 2 times

3) Multiply from across and you will get your answer

Answer:

1/4*2/5=(1*2)/(4*5)

= 2/ 20
