Answer:

Example: Divide 7 by 8/13

To solve, first, set the expression:

(7/(8/13)).

First, you must know that you have to change the first division sign i.e. 7/ etc.

To do so, change the division sign to multiplication, and flip the second number (in this case a fraction): (7/(8/13)) = 7 * (13/8)

Simplify. Multiply, then divide:

7 * 13 = 91

91/8 = 11.375

11.375 would be your answer.
