Answer:

5/40

Explanation:

Skip, flip, multiply.

(5/4) / (10/1)

(5/4) * (1/10)

5/40

Instead of dividing by ten, think of you're multiplying by 1/10th. It's a lot easier on the brain.

Answer:

5/40

Explanation:

Dividing fractions is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal:

5/4 รท 10

5/4 x 1/10

Multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:

= 5/40

So, the answer is 5/40
