  One of the nifty tricks we can do with the chain rule is reconstruct the quotient rule. To find the derivative of
  
  first rewrite the function like this:
  
  h(x) = f(x) · (g(x))-1.
  
  Now that h is written as a product, we can use the product rule to find its derivative:
  
  h ' (x) = f ' (x)(g(x))-1 + f(x) · ((g(x))-1)'.
  
  Now there are two big steps left. First we'll use the chain rule to find this derivative:
  
  h ' (x) = f ' (x)(g(x))-1 + f(x) · ((g(x))-1)'.
  
  Then we'll simplify the formula we got using the product rule until it magically turns into the quotient rule.
  
  Chain Rule:
  
  To finish applying the product rule, we need to know
  
  ((g(x))-1)'
  
  In other words, we need to know the derivative of the nested function
  
  (g(x))-1
  
  Do our chain rule stuff. The outside function is
  
  (□)-1,
  
  and its derivative is
  
  -(□)-2.
  
  The inside function is
  
  g(x),
  
  and its derivative is
  
  g ' (x).
  
  Now we can use the chain rule:
  
  ((g(x))-1)' = -(g(x))-2 · g ' (x)
  
  Since (g(x))-2 is the same thing as , we can rewrite this as
  
  Returning to the product rule,
  
  We can do some great simplifying here. Since (g(x))-1 is the same thing as , we can rewrite this as
  
  Now we can put the fractions over a common denominator and combine them:
  
  Ta-daa! This is the quotient rule.
