Answer:

5/2

Explanation:

To divide fractions, you flip the second fractions and change it to multiplication.

(3/2) / (3/5) =

(3/2) x (5/3)

To multiply them, you just multiply their numerators together to get the new numerator and multiply the denominators together to get the new denominator.

(3/2) x (5/3) =

(3 x 5) / (2 x 3) =

15/6

This can be reduced to:

5/2
