Answer:


(24)/(35)\ or\ 0.6857

Explanation:

Step 1: Convert to multiplication


(3)/(5)/(7)/(8)

Since we have a division symbol we can change it to a multiplication by taking the reciprocal (flipped fraction) of the second fraction and change the division for multiplication.


(3)/(5) * (8)/(7)

Step 2: Multiply


(3 * 8)/(5*7)


(24)/(35)

Answer:
(24)/(35)\ or\ 0.6857
