To simplify the division between fractions, follow this steps:

Step 1. Turn the second fraction (the one that is dividing the first fraction) upside down:


(7)/(30)\rightarrow(30)/(7)

Step 2. Multiply the first fraction by the one obtained in the first step:


(14)/(15)\cdot(30)/(7)=(14\cdot30)/(15\cdot7)=(420)/(105)

Step 3. Simplify:


(420)/(105)=4

The answer is 4.
