Answer:

About 1.82(142857)

Explanation:

The result will be irrational, like pi, but the approximate result of this is above. Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions, like 11/5. Then divide. In this case, 17/3 divided by 28/9 equals about 1.82(142857), the 142857 in the parentheses means 142857 goes forever. Hope it helps!
