Question 561645: I don't know how to approach this proof.
For all numbers a, b,c,d is an element of real numbers.
B,d do not equal zero
if a/b = c/d
then ad=bc
Why mudr the restrictions on b and d exist.
should the same apply to b and d.

Anything divided by 0 is not defined.
so b & d cannot be equal to 0
