Answer: b. 15

Step-by-step explanation: (15 / 4) / (2 / 8) = (15 / 4) * (8 / 2) = (15 * 8) / (4 * 2) = 120 / 8 = 15

(33/4) / (2/8)
when dividing with fractions, flip what u r dividing by, then multiply
33/4 * 8/2 = 66/2 = 33...hmm...not an answer choice

let me try something..
(3 3/4) / (2/8) =
15/4 * 8/2 =
30/2 =
15 <====possibly this one if ur problem is : (3 3/4) / (2/8)
