(12/9)/4
(4/3)/4
(4/3)/(4/1)
(4/3)*(1/4)
(4 * 1)/(3 * 4)
(1/3)
---------------------------------
(1/3) + (1/2)
Multiply everything by 6
(2/6) + (3/6)
(2 + 3)/6
(5/6)

or 1/3 I should say. 12/9= 4/3.......4/3* 4 = 1/3 ............But the 2nd question = .833 or(5/6)......That's assuming that you just need the length and not the area, that would be something totally different. 1/2= 3/6 and 1/3 = 2/6 so 3/6+ 2/6 = 5/6 or slightly more than .833 yards

Restate your problem in an understandable form. We don't know the details. What is "12/9 divided by 4" tell me? Nothing!!! What project? Start over and spell it out.
