To divide fractions, you basically just multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second. To find the reciprocal, you just flip the numerator and the denominator.

For number 36, you have 2/3÷8/15. To solve this, you just multiply 2/3 by 15/8.

2/3×15/8 is 30/24, which is 5/4 or 1 1/4.

To answer the second problem, you have to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions.

7 1/6 as an improper fraction is 43/6. 5 3/4 as an improper fraction is 23/4.

Do the same procedure; 43/6×4/23 is 86/69 or 1 17/69.
