I think it’s 5/3 but not pretty sure and if it’s wrong I’m sorry.

5 divided by 1/3 is the same as asking "How many different slices of pie are there if you cut 5 pies into 3 slices each?" So, if you were to use the diagram, you could cut each piece into three slices, which is the same as 5 x 3 = 15.

Sorry bad explanation but hope this helped! :D
