Explanation:

Simplify 6/15 to 2/5, then use the rule a÷b/c=a*c/b. Next cancel 5, simplify twice then you're done.

8/5÷(2/5)

8/5*(5/2)

8*1/2

8/2=4

Hope this helps, HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great Superbowl Weekend! :-)

Answer: 4

Explanation:

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.

Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes 8/5 x 15/6

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get 8x15/5x6 = 120/30

Since 120 divided by 30 equals 4 then, 120/30 = 4

Therefore 8/5, 6/15 = 4
