Hi Loweena.
Here's one way to do this:
I would start by rewriting the equation without the division line:

Now we repeat the process, applying the product rule and the chain rule, to get the second derivative:
If you wish, you can simplify this a little bit.
I will factor out
If you wish, you can also return to the original format:
