Step-by-step explanation:
- [tex] \frac{5}{8} \div \frac{1}{4} \\ = \frac{5}{8} \times \frac{4}{1} \\ = \frac{20}{8} \\ = \frac{5}{2} [/tex]
- remember that if you dividing the fractions the division sign changes to multiplication sign and what you are dividing by changes position what was the denominator will be the numerator and what was the numerator will be the denominator. that is what I did above. Now as a results you have an improper which can be written as an improper fraction
[tex] 2\frac{1}{2} [/tex]
please verify with the examiner that's the correct answer
