Answer:


4 (2)/(5) / 1 (1)/(5) = (11)/(3) or \: 3 (2)/(3)

Explanation:

First before start dividing me have to change the mixed fractions into improper ones.


4 (2)/(5) = (5 * 4 + 2)/(5)\\ = (22)/(5)


1 (1)/(5) = (5 * 1 + 1)/(5) \\ = (6)/(5)

so the new question would be:


(22)/(5) / (6)/(5) = \\ \\ reciprocal \: of \: (6)/(5) = \: ( (5)/(6) ) \\ \\ so \: (22)/(5) * (5)/(6) = (22)/(6) or (11)/(3)
