A complex fraction has a fraction in the numerator, denominator, or both. As with all fractions, it implies division, so apply the rules of dividing by a fraction, invert the divisor and multiply.

EX: (a/b) / (c/d) means (a/b) divided by (c/d) = (a/b) x (d/c) = (ad) / (bc)

and as always reduce if possible.

EX: (2/3) / (3/5) = (2/3) x (5/3) = 10/9 = 1 1/9

Neither. A complex fraction has an imaginary component in the numerator or the denominator (or both). However, conventionally, the denominator is made real so that only the numerator remains a complex number.

How do you write 3 8ths as a fraction on a pc?

The standard method to write any fraction is to write the numerator followed by a slash (/) followed by the denominator → three eights is 3/8 To improve the look, the numerator can be made superscript and the denominator made subscript. However, Unicode includes three eighths as a character ⅜ which I type using [Alt Gr][<SHIFT>][5] on this Linux box.
