The formula of the area of a triangle is 1/2 base times height which of the following is not a possible first step to rearrange this formula to find the base of the triangle

Multiplication/Addition If something is 1/2 of another then you need to Divide the Whole number (Height) by 2 to figure out what the base is. Here's an Example If the Height is 4 and the base is only 1/2 of the height it would be 4:2=? due to you needing to split the 4 in half.
