I can't seem to get the conjugate of a quotient is the quotient of the conjugates:

[tex]\overline{\left(\frac{z}{w}\right)}=\frac{\overline{z}}{\overline{w}}[/tex]

I'm pretty sure the latex is correct.

50 characters limit, described in the FAQ. You need to add spaces to break the text.

[tex]\overline{\left(\frac{z}{w}\right)}= \frac{\overline{z}}{\overline{w}}[/tex]
