Question

To find 1/8 ÷ 3/5 we use the reciprocal of?​

Answer 1

5/3

Explanation:

A way I remembered how to divide fractions was stay (first fraction) change (division to multiplication) flip (the second fraction)

Answer 2

The reciprocal we use:
`(5)/(3)` ; Answer:
`(5)/(24)`

Explanation:

The reason why we use this reciprocal is because we are dividing 3/5 from 1/8, so we have to use the reciprocal of the divisor instead. Next, we multiply the numerators and denominators and we get the product of 5/24 and since we cannot simplify further, this is the final answer.

Hope this helps! :D
