1 1/3 divided by 5/8

First you need to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction

4/3 divided by 5/8

Now you flip the reciprocal for 5/8 which would turn into 8/5

Rewrite it

4/3*8/5

Now you then multiply both sides Which would give you 32/15

32/15 is your answer or if you need any other forms of the answer 2 2/15 or 2.13 repeating
