Answer:

we cry bc math is hard JKK unless ?

but fr we can write out an equation by doing (1/5 ÷ 3/4) and then switch the sign to multiplication and we can keep the first fraction the same (in this case 1/5) and then we flip the second fraction BUT when we flip the second fraction upside-down we have to change the symbol to multiplication (1/5x4/3)

then after that all we do is multiply the denominators and numerators :)

1 x 4 = 4

_______

5 x 3 = 15

answer would be 4/15
