The correct answer is 56/5

This is because when you divide by a fraction, it is the same as multiplying by that same fraction flipped. So we start with:

7 ÷ 5/8

Now we can flip it and change it to multiply. 

7 * 8/5

Then when we multiply, we multiply the 7 times the 8 since they are our two numerators. You never need to multiply the denominator by either unless there is another denominator. 

56/5

Hello !

The answer is [tex] \frac{56}{5} [/tex]

 [tex]7 :\frac{5}{8} [/tex]  


When you have to divide a number with a fraction you must multiply that number with the overturning fraction (which,in this case,is 8/5)

 [tex]7* \frac{8}{5} [/tex]


Then,you can multiply the numerators with the numerators and the denominators with the denominators :

 [tex] \frac{7*8}{5} [/tex]

The result will be   [tex] \frac{56}{5} [/tex]
