Alyssa claims that dividing by 4/5 is the same thing as multipling by 5 then dividing by 4 is she correct? Exaplain why or why not

Answer: True, Alyssa is correct that it is the same thing

Explanation:

Division is the opposite of multiplication.

If we take a fraction let's say 4/3 and divide it by 4/5

Take the reciprocal and change the division sign to multiplication

4/3 x 5/4

(Both the 4 will cancel out)

= 5/3

Thus, it can be deduced that dividing 4/5 is the same as multiplying by 5 and dividing by 4
