Something tells me you wouldn’t be here if you could use a calculator XD. Complex fractions might seem, well...complex, but all they really are is just tedious. Let me show you how to solve this by hand. Hopefully I can translate the fraction into text!
(2 1/2)/(5/8)
Now, if you remember, when dividing with fractions, you may multiply with the reciprocal of the fraction that’s dividing. What that means is, if you flip the bottom fraction from (5/8) to (8/5), you make your life easier by multiplying.
(2 1/2) • (8/5)
To make things even easier, let’s turn 2 1/2 into an improper fraction. This turns it into (5/2). So...
(5/2) • (8/5)
If you remember, to multiply fractions, you multiply both numerators, then both denominators.
