Answer:

2/9

Explanation:

well to divide fractions you have to do keep (the first fraction) change (the operation to multiplication) and flip (the second fraction) aka KCF

so your new equation is 8/9 times 1/4

that is equal to 8/36 which is simplified to 2/9

therefore your answer is 2/9

hope this helped (:
