Answer:

B

Explanation:

7

---

10

=====

5

----

10

Invert the denominator and multiply

7 10

---- X ------

10 5

The 10s cancel. You get 7/5

7/5 = 1 2/5

That's B

I'm sorry, I don't exactly see how the diagram helps you. It seems to me it is much easier done just by doing what I did, which works every time.
