Answer: 4/7

Explanation:

8 4/7 ÷ 15

60/7× 1/15

=4/7

ok so...you first are going to convert the mix fraction 8 4/7 to improper fraction by multiplying the denominator and the whole number which is 56 then add the numerator 56 +4= 60 and put back the denominator which is going to be 60/7.

Then flip the fraction or the whole number 15 which is also 15/1 that is on the right which is going to be 1/15 and change the division sign to multiplication which is going to be 60/7 × 1/15.

then you can cancel, 15 go into 60, 4 times, so you are going to multiply 4 times 1 and 7 times one, which gives you 4/7.

I hope this help you to understand
