Answer:

2/19

Explanation:

Rewrite the mixed number as an improper fraction. Frist, multiply 2x8 then add that to 3 to get 19/8. Now you have 1/4 / 19/8. Multiply by the reciprocal of the denominator. Now you have 1/4 x 8/19. 1 x 8 = 8. 4 × 19= 76. This gives you 8/76. You can simplify this by dividing the numerator and denominator by 4. This would give you 2/19.
