To find the fraction of students at West high school who play football, we first need to find the fraction of students who play a sport and then multiply it by the fraction of sport-playing students who play football.

If 2/5 of the students play a sport, then the fraction of students who play a sport is 2/5.

If 1/4 of the sport-playing students play football, then the fraction of sport-playing students who play football is 1/4.

To find the fraction of students who play football, we multiply these two fractions: (2/5) * (1/4) = 2/20 = 1/10.

Therefore, 1/10 of the students at West high school play football.

To find the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2, we need to divide 4/6 by 1/2.

Dividing fractions involves multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1.

So, we have (4/6) * (2/1) = (4 * 2) / (6 * 1) = 8/6.

Since 8/6 can be simplified, we divide the numerator and denominator by 2, which gives us 4/3.

Therefore, the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2 is 4/3.

Apologies for the incorrect answer.

To find the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2, we divide 4/6 by 1/2.

Dividing fractions involves multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1.

So, we have (4/6) * (2/1) = (4 * 2) / (6 * 1) = 8/6.

The fraction 8/6 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.

The simplified fraction is 4/3.

Therefore, the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2 is 4/3.

Apologies for that. Let's approach the problem again.

To find the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2, we divide 4/6 by 1/2.

Dividing fractions involves multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1.

So, we have (4/6) / (1/2) = (4/6) * (2/1) = (4 * 2) / (6 * 1) = 8/6.

However, the fraction 8/6 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.

Dividing 8 by 2 and 6 by 2, we get 4/3.

Therefore, the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2 is 4/3.
