We are given the following expression:


(3)/(10)/(8)/(5)

To solve the expression we will use the following property:


(a)/(b)/(c)/(d)=(a)/(b)*(d)/(c)

Applying the property we get:


(3)/(10)/(8)/(5)=(3)/(10)*(5)/(8)

Solving the products:


(3)/(10)*(5)/(8)=(15)/(80)

Simplifying we get:


(15)/(80)=(3)/(16)

Therefore, the expression is equal to 3/16
