Answer:


\sf 3(1)/(23)

step by step:


  • \sf 8(3)/(4) \ / \ 2(7)/(8)

mixed to improper fraction


  • \sf (35)/(4) \ / \ (23)/(8)

change division to multiplication by manipulating sides


  • \sf (35)/(4) \ * \ (8)/(23)

simplify


  • \sf 35} \ * \ (2)/(23)

finally multiply, result will be in improper fraction


  • \sf (70)/(23)

turn it into mixed fraction


  • \sf 3(1)/(23)
