Answer:

3.75 or 3and 3/4 or 15/4

Explanation:

(3⁄4 ) ÷ (1⁄5)

or

(3/4)/(1/5)

3/4= 0.75

1/5= 0.2

(0.75)/(0.2) = 3.75 or 3and 3/4 or 15/4

another method

(3⁄4 ) ÷ (1⁄5)

flip to multiply

(3/4)(5/1)

(3/4)(5)

multiply the top of the fraction by 5, leave the bottom alone

15/4= 3and3/4 = 3.75

all 3 forms of the answer are correct because they equal the same thing
