Answer 1

When dividing fractions, flip the second fraction over and then multiply.
(5/8)(3/2)= 15/16

Answer 2

first you must find the common denominator.

Which is 24 , I used 8 times 3 .

Then you multiply the numerator 5 by 3 which makes it 15/24 now

Then you multiply the numerator 2 by 8 which now makes it 16/24

Answer will be 1/24
