\huge\text{Hey there!}



\mathsf{(8)/(3)/ (5)/(3)}\\\\\mathsf{= (8)/(3)*(3)/(5)}\\\\\mathsf{= (8*3)/(3*5)}\\\\\mathsf{= (24)/(15)}\\\\\mathsf{= (24/3)/(15/3)}\\\\\mathsf{= (8)/(5)}\\\\\\\huge\text{Therefore, your answer should be: \boxed{\mathsf{(8)/(5)}}}\huge\checkmark

Answer:


(8)/(5)

Explanation:

Note that when we divide a Fraction, we will flip the numerator and denominator of the Fraction that is divided by.


(8)/(3) / (5)/( 3 ) \\ = (8)/(3) * (3)/(5) \\ = (24)/(15) \\ = (8)/(5)

Reduce it to the simplest form.
