Answer:

5/14

Explanation:

When dividing fractions, we have to change the division sign to a multiplication sign in order to make the problem easier. When we change signs, we also have to flip the second fraction in the equation. So, the fractions would turn into:

2/7 x 5/4

2 x 5 is 10, and 7 x 4 is 28. 10/28 simplified is 5/14.

Hope this helps!
