Let's use the rule of dividing fractions on your problem.
Step 1: Rewrite the first fraction as it is.
Step 2: Replace the division sign with a multiplication sign.
Step 3: Flip the second fraction.
Step 4: Multiply the fractions and reduce the product if necessary.
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together, and multiply the denominators together.
We notice that the greatest common factor of 20 and 24 is 4, so we divide both the numerator and denominator by 4 to reduce the fraction.
