Answer:
1 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
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.

Answer:
BC:BN=8:3
Step-by-step explanation:
ABCD is a trapezoid and there is a point m which belongs to AD such that AM:MD=3:5.Line "l" parallel to AB intersects the diagonal AC at p and BD at N.
Now, we know that the parallel lines divide the transversal into the segments with equal ratio, therefore, BN:NC=AM:MD
But, BC= BN+NC
Therefore, BC:BN=(BN+NC):BN
⇒BC:BN=(3+5):3
⇒BC:BN=8:3
