(7)/(24):(35)/(48)=(\\ot7^1)/(\\ot24_1)\cdot(\\ot48^2)/(\\ot35_5)=(1)/(1)\cdot(2)/(5)=1\cdot(2)/(5)=\boxed{(2)/(5)}

If you would like to calculate 7/24 divided by 35/48, you can do this using the following steps:

7/24 / 35/48 = 7/24 * 48/35 = (7 * 48) / (24 * 35) = 2/5 = 0.4

The correct result would be 2/5.
