Answer: 4
Step-by-step explanation: do the brackets first. which is (1/2 * 3/8) to multiply these two together multiply numerator by numerator and denominator by denominator. Or, top * top / bottom * bottom
so we'd do 1*2 / 3*8. so it would give you 3/16.
now all we have left to do is divide 3/4 by 3/16.
to do this you can multiply by the reciprocal of the second value(3/16 will become 16/3)
now we have [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{16}{3}[/tex] you can cancel out each 3 to give you 1/4 * 16/1
and you can also divide both 16 and 4 by 4 (16/4=4)
this gives you a final equation of 1 * 4 for a final answer of 4
