As we learnt in 

Division of Complex Numbers -

\frac{a+ib}{c+id}=\frac{ac+bd}{c^{2}+d^{2}}+i\frac{bc-ad}{c^{2}+d^{2}}

-

 

 \left ( \frac{a+ib}{a'+ib'} \right )\times \left (\frac{a'-ib'}{a'-ib'} \right )\\*\\*=\frac{aa'+bb'+i\left ( a'b-ab' \right )}{a'^2+b'^2}

For a real number a'b-ab'=0


Option 1)

ab-a^{'}b^{'}=0

Incorrect

Option 2)

ab^{'}+a^{'}b=0

Incorrect

Option 3)

aa^{'}-bb^{'}=0

Incorrect

Option 4)

ab^{'}-a^{'}b=0

Correct
