Answer:

3/32

Explanation:

When dividing fractions, we use keep change flip.

We keep the 1/4, change into multiplication, and flip 2 and 2/3.

First, we want to change 2 and 2/3 into improper fraction form, which is 8/3.

Our equation is now :

1/4 divided by 8/3

Now, we apply keep change flip.

1/4 * 3/8

Multiply numerator by numerator and denominator by denominator.

3/32

3/32 is your final answer. It cannot be simplified further.
