Write the two fractions as improper fractions
4 2/3 is 14/3
<span>4 1/5</span> is 21/5
rewrite
14/3 <span>÷ 21/5
since it is pretty complicated to divide two fractions,
you change it to multiplication
keep the first fraction, change the division sign to multiplication, then flip the second fraction
(you can remember KEEP, CHANGE, FLIP whenever dealing with division of fractions :) )
14/3 * 5/21
multiply across
(14 * 5) / ( 3 * 21)
</span>70/ 63
simplify to 10/9
this can be written as 1 1/9
Hope this helps

Answer:
a=19
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to distribute the parenthesis; multiply (a+5) by 1/3
8=1/3*a+1/3*5
Now we just solve the equation regularly
8=1/3a+5/3
8-5/3=1/3a
6 1/3=1/3a
a=19
