25÷2 3/8

Let's remember how to convert


a(b)/(c)=((a\cdot c)+b)/(c)

Step 1

convert


\begin{gathered} 2(3)/(8)=((2\cdot8)+3)/(8) \\ 2(3)/(8)=(19)/(8) \\ \end{gathered}

Step 2

now , we have 25 divided by 19/8


\begin{gathered} 25\text{ divide by 19/8=}((25)/(1))/((19)/(8)) \\ 25\text{ divide by 2 3/8=}(25\cdot8)/(19\cdot1)=(200)/(19) \\ 25\text{divide by 2 3/8=}(200)/(19) \\ \end{gathered}

so, the answer is 200/19
