Answer:


(6)/(11) ÷
(3)/(5) =
(10)/(11)

Explanation:

Dividing fractions is actually easier than it seems because there's a trick.

You flip the divisor fraction (the one you are dividing BY) and then multiply instead of divide! The flipped divisor is called the reciprocal.

So,
(3)/(5) becomes
(5)/(3). Which means
(5)/(3) is the reciprocal of
(3)/(5).

If you want to divide
(6)/(11) by
(3)/(5) , you simply multiply
(6)/(11) by the reciprocal of 
(3)/(5) which is
(5)/(3).


(6)/(11) ×
(5)/(3) =
(30)/(33)

Now reduce and
(30)/(33) becomes
(10)/(11)
