7/8 divided by 3/8 = 2 1/3

  • TRUE


(7)/(8) / (3)/(8) \\ reciprocal \: and \: change \: multiply \\ (7)/(8) * (8)/(3) \\ simplify \\ (7)/(1) * (1)/(3) = (7)/(3) \\ change \: to \: mixed \\ 7 / 3 = 2 (1)/(3)

When to divide, 3 × 2 is 6, and we divide 7 by 3, so 7 minus 6 is 1 as the remainder. So, the remainder is the numerator and the denominator is the one we divided by 7 which is the.

Therefore, this is correct.
