Answer:

8/45 or 0.177...... (the seven continues forever).

Explanation:

8/9 ÷ 5

First, turn 5 into a fraction. That will be 5/1

8/9 ÷ 5/1

When you're dividing fractions, you flip the second fraction and turn the division sign to a mutiplication sign

8/9 ÷ 1/5

8/9 * 1/5

Now you multiply. We will multiply the numerator and then the denominators through since there are no common factors.

8 * 1/9 * 5

8/45
