There are (at least) two ways to divide fractions.

1. "invert and multiply" (A.K.A. "swap dot")

  $\dfrac{1}{3}\div\dfrac{8}{3}=\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot\dfrac{3}{8}=\dfrac{1\cdot3}{3\cdot8}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{8}}$

__

2. Drop common denominators.

  $\dfrac{1}{3}\div\dfrac{8}{3}=1\div8=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{8}}$
