Answer:


(15)/(4)

Can also be written as the following,


3(3)/(4)

Explanation:

First, set up the given problem,


(3)/(4) ÷
(1)/(5)

In order to divide two fractions, one must take the reciprocal of the second fraction and then change the multiplication sign to a division sign. Apply this technique to the given problem,


(3)/(4) ÷
(1)/(5)


(3)/(4) * (5)/(1)

Multiply,


(15)/(4)

Convert to a mixed number. To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, one must divide the numerator (number on top of a fraction) by the denominator (number under the fraction bar), write the whole value to the left of the fraction, and the remainder of the division in place of the numerator.


3(3)/(4)
