It does not require a lot of steps because it only involves multiplying and simplifying. When multiplying fractions, you take the numerators and multiply them. You also do the same with the denominators. If needed, the final product is then simplified by dividing the numerator and the denominator by their Greatest Common Factor. Dividing fractions is almost the same as multiplying fractions except that you get the reciprocal of the divisor before proceeding to multiplication and then simplifying the quotient if needed.
