you take 3 over 4 an switch the second number around so it is 5 over 4.

Then you get 15 over 16.

15/16

When dividing fractions, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of a fraction is basically flipping it upside down.
The reciprocal of 4/5 is 5/4.

Then multiply 3/4 x 5/4. To do that, multiply 3 x 5, then multiply 4 x 4. Then you have 15/16.
