Given:
.

.
This is how I interpret what you meant in your problem.
.
Recall way back in your days of learning about fractions ... you learned that if you divide
by a fraction it is the same as inverting that fraction and multiplying it by the quantity you
are trying to divide it into.
.
In this problem you are trying to divide the very bottom fraction:
.

.
Into the very top fraction:
.

.
Following the fraction rule of division, you can invert the very bottom fraction into the form:
.

.
and multiply it by the very top fraction to make the original division problem become the
following equivalent multiplication problem:
.

.
Now let's do lots of factoring as follows:
.

.
and finally:
.

.
Substituting these factor into the appropriate places in the equivalent multiplication
problem results in that problem becoming:
.

.
Now carefully go through the problem and, as much as you can, cancel a factor in the numerator
with a corresponding factor somewhere in the denominator. This should look like this:
.

.
And what you are left with is the answer:
.

.
Hope this helps you to work your way through this problem.
