Answer:

15/8 simplified = 1 7/8

Explanation:

an easier way to divide fractions is to convert all into a improper fraction like this 1 1/4 > 1x4+1= 5/4 since 2/3 isnt mixed keep it ok so now you have 5/4 divided by 2/3 next you take the fraction on the right and flip then multiply it to get 5/4 x 3/2 then you multiply across to get 15/8 then change that to a mixed number by dividing 15 by 8 to get 1 with a remainder of 7 so 1 7/8 is your answer

hope this helps you in the future have a blessed day!
