Answer:

4/5

Explanation:

To convert a mixed number of the form a b/c for an improper fraction, you will get (ac+b)/c. Use this on the two fractions to get 4/3 to 5/3. "To" is just another word for "divided by" or "over". So, we can do 4/3 divided by 5/3, and if you multiply both numbers by 3, it will not change the result, because you are multiplying by 3/3 or 1, so you will get your final answer is 4/5.
