Answer:

1. 50/1 or 50 (other answer is 16 2/3, see explanation to see what I mean)

2. 120/12 or 10

3. 3/10

Explanation:

1. 10 ÷
(1)/(5\\)

Convert 10 into a fraction


(10)/(1) ÷
(1)/(5) =
(10)/(1) x
(5)/(1) =
(50)/(1) or 50

(I think you did a Typo and accidentally said three fifths but im going to put it here in case.)

10 Divided by
(3)/(5)

Convert 10 into a fraction


(10)/(1) ÷
(3)/(5) =
(10)/(1) x
(5)/(3) =
(50)/(3) or 16
(2)/(3)

2. 3
(3)/(4) ÷
(3)/(8)

Convert 3
(3)/(4) into a improper fraction

3
(3)/(4) =
(15)/(4)

Then Divide


(15)/(4) ÷
(3)/(8) =
(15)/(4) x
(8)/(3) =
(120)/(12) or 10

3.
(1)/(2) ÷
(5)/(3)


(1)/(2) ÷
(5)/(3)

Turn it into a multiplication problem by turning the multiplier into a reciprocal


(1)/(2) x
(3)/(5) =
(3)/(10)

Hope this helps!
