2 2/5 because math if you need me to explain I can!
4/5 ÷1/3, the first step in dividing fractions is to flip the second one (its reciprocal)
4/5 ÷ 3/1 then change the sign to ×
4/5 × 3/1 which would then equal
12/5 now simplify, 5 goes into 12 two times with a remainder of 2 so that leaves you like
2 2/5

Keep, change, flip (I just answered your other question if you want further detail)
Keep 4/5.
Flip the ÷ sign to a × sign.
Flip 1/3 ⇒3/1.
Rewrite: 4/5 × 3/1
Solve: 4/5 × 3/1 = 12/5
4/5 ÷ 1/3 = 12/5, or 2 2/5.
