Explain how complex fractions can be used to solve problems involving ratios?

Complex fractions are numbers in which the numerator and the denominator are both fractions. in this case, to solve the ratio, we can multiply the numerator fraction by the reciprocal of the denominator fraction. Another way is to solve the fraction separately and then divide eventually. 

A. p = 2(l + w)p/2 - l = ww = p/2 - l b. while isolating the variable w in the equation, i first divided both sides by 2 and then i subtracted l from both sides. i hope this .
