3/4 is the correct answer.

This is a division problem, so we need to flip the second fraction. Then we need to multiply the numerator and denominator of the fractions to get the quotient.
</span>When we divide fractions, we have to switch the numerator and denominator of the second fraction. Now our second fraction is 15/8<span>.
</span>
<span>Multiply the numerators together, and multiply the denominators together.

The fraction 30/40 is not in lowest terms, so we need to reduce it. List the factors of the numerator and denominator:
Factors of <span>30: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30</span>
Factors of <span>40: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40</span>
10 is the largest factor of both 30 and 40, so we need to divide both the numerator and denominator by 10.
Numerator: 30 ÷ 10 = 3
Denominator: 40 ÷ 10 = 4
Write the new fraction:
<span>3/4</span>
