keep change flip////// times 4 by 15 and add 3 and your answer would be over 4 and then times 7 by 7 and add 5 and then you keep your first answer change your dividing sign to a multiplication sign and flip your answer (switch top with bottom and bottom with top) and then multiply across and simplify if needed

15(3)/(4):7(5)/(7)\ \ \ |Convert\ mixed\ fractions\ into \ improper\ fractions\\\\ (63)/(4):(54)/(7)\ \ \ |Multiply\ first\ fraction\ by\ inverse\ of\ the\ second\\\\ (63)/(4)*(7)/(54)=(441)/(216)=\boxed{2(1)/(24)}
