Answer:

4.727

Explanation:

An easy way to think of something being divided by a fraction is by turning the fraction into a decimal. In this case, it's 5 1/2, which is the same as 5.5. So, you can just calculate 26 / 5.5, by hand, or on a calculator, and the answer is 4.727.

Hope this helps!

Hey there!☺


Answer:\boxed{4(8)/(11)}


Explanation:


26/5(1)/(2)

Divide both fractions.


26/5(1)/(2)=(52)/(11)

52/11 needs to be simplified so let's simplify it.


(52)/(11)=4(8)/(11)


4(8)/(11) is our final answer.

Hope this helps!
