Answer:

35/24

Explanation:

8 1/3= 25/3 5 5/7= 40/7

(25/3) divided by (40/7) is equal to (25/3) x (7/40) using Keep Change Flip (KCF) where you keep the initial value, switch the sign from dividing to multiplying, and then flip the other value. Then, multiply across to get 175/120 which simplifies to 35/24.
