Answer:
1⅓
Step-by-step explanation:
8/15 ÷ 2/5
8/15 × 5/2
(8×5)/(15×2)
4/3
1 1/3
Solve. Change the division sign into a multiplication, and flip the second fraction:
(8/15)/(2/5) = (8/15) x (5/2)
Multiply across:
(8 x 5)/(15 x 2) = (40)/(30)
Simplify. Divide common factors:
(40/30)/(10/10) = 4/3
4/3 or 1 1/3 is your answer.
