Theorem ddcand

Description: Cancellation in a double division. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 27-May-2016)

Ref Expression
Hypotheses div1d.1 ( 𝜑𝐴 ∈ ℂ )
divcld.2 ( 𝜑𝐵 ∈ ℂ )
divne0d.3 ( 𝜑𝐴 ≠ 0 )
divne0d.4 ( 𝜑𝐵 ≠ 0 )
Assertion ddcand ( 𝜑 → ( 𝐴 / ( 𝐴 / 𝐵 ) ) = 𝐵 )

Proof

2 divcld.2 ( 𝜑𝐵 ∈ ℂ )
3 divne0d.3 ( 𝜑𝐴 ≠ 0 )
4 divne0d.4 ( 𝜑𝐵 ≠ 0 )
