Final answer:

f(x)/g(x) = 3/5. To find f(x)/g(x), substitute the given functions into the expression and simplify.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find f(x)/g(x), we need to substitute the given functions into the expression. Let's do that:

f(x) = 5x and g(x) = 5x/3

Now we can substitute these values into the expression:

f(x)/g(x) = (5x)/(5x/3)

To divide by a fraction, we can multiply by its reciprocal:

f(x)/g(x) = (5x) * (3/5x)

The x terms cancel out:

f(x)/g(x) = 3/5

Therefore, f(x)/g(x) = 3/5.

f(x) = 5x

g(x) = 5x/3

f(x) / g(x) = (5x) ÷ (5x / 3)

That's (5x) • (3 / 5x)

which is . . . . . 3 .
