Answer:

3/2

Explanation:

Assuming you meant fractions, to divide them, you must multiply the reciprocal of that fraction. You'll then have:

4/5x15/8

Reduce the numbers of the greatest common factor which is 5:

4x3/8

Reduce the numbers of the greatest common factor which is now 4:

3/2 is your answer
