Steps:
1. Turn the two mixed numbers into improper fractions.
36/5 and 18/5
2. Now divide the fractions by doing the reciprocal with the second fraction and changing the problem to a multiplication problem
36/5 times 5/18
3. 36 times 5=180
5 times 18=90
4. You simplify 180/90 by seeing how many times 180 goes into 90
5. Your answer is 2
