<span>Brenda would be correct, another way to find the answer would be to use the keep change flip method. Where you keep 5/2 change division to multiplication then flip 4/1. The equation would then be 5/2 * 4/1 then you just multiply straight across 5*4 = 20 and 2*1 equals 2. You end up with 20/2 which reduces to 10</span>
