howdy! hope youre having a good day!

4/7 divided by 8/5 is 5/14 !

you can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal (flipped version) of the second fraction: (4/7) ÷ (8/5) = (4/7) * (5/8)

now, multiply the fractions: (4/7) * (5/8) = (4 * 5) / (7 * 8) = 20 / 56

now, you can simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 20 and 56, which is 4, so (20 / 56) ÷ 4 = (20 ÷ 4) / (56 ÷ 4)

which equals 5/14 !
