Question

Can you please help me with this problem can you do it step by step because this is a calculation problem and can you do it step by step so I understand how you did it using the calculation 

Suppose you have a machine that executes a program consisting of 50% floating point multiply, 20% floating point
divide, and the remaining 30% are from other instructions.
Management wants the machine to run 4 times faster. You can make the divide run at most 3 times faster and the
multiply run at most 8 times faster. Can you meet management's goal by making only one improvement, and which
one?
Amdahl's Law states:
Execution time after improvement =
(Execution time affected by improvement)/(Amount of Improvement) + Execution time unaffected
