First, let’s break down each piece of the problem, as each piece is important. We have the first fraction, or the dividend, which can be broken down into its numerator, 4, and its denominator, 16. We also have the second fraction, or the divisor, which can be broken down into its numerator, 15, and its denominator, 9:
Numerator of the dividend: 4
Denominator of the dividend: 16
Numerator of the divisor: 15
Denominator of the divisor: 9
So, what is 4/16 divided by 15/9? Let’s work through the problem, and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
