Answer:

the answer is 3 7/9

Explanation:

in order to find the answer to this you need to change the mixed fraction into a improper fraction then do the reciprocal on 3/2 would would change to 2/3. Then, since you cant divide fractions you need to multiply 17/3×2/3 which would give you 34/9. But since 34/9 is improper, you need to change it to a mixed fraction and simplify if you can. So that means your final answer should be 3 7/9

Answer:

34/9 or 3 7/9

Explanation:

to do this u must turn 5 2/3 into an improper fraction first

5 2/3 is also 17/3

to divide you can multiply the first number by the second numbers reciprocal or flipped numbers

17/3 * 2/3

you flipped 3/2 to make it 2/3

for 17/3 * 2/3 just multiply across

34/9

then you can make that a mixed number

3 7/9

that is your answer
