okay first you convert 5 and 1 over 4 to an improper fraction by multiplying 5x4 which is 20 than you add 20+1 which is 21 then you just simply put 21 over 4 as your new fraction.Then now what you are really answering is 4 over 7 divided by 21 over 4.Then you keep the first fraction the way it is and you change the division sign to a multiplication sign and you do the reciprocal to the last fraction that simply means you have to switch the top number and the bottom number which will make it into 4 over 21 then you just simply multiply strait across.
4x4 which is 16 then you multiply 7x21 which is 147.And there's your answer!....16 over 147

5 divided by 1 is 5. 1 over 4 is a quarter. 5 divided by 1¼ is 5 divided by 5/4, which is 5 time 4/5, that is 4.
4/5 divided by 1/2 = 1.6 or 1 3/5
1 over 5
3/5 divided by 1/7 is 21/5 or 4 and 1/5
The "invert and multiply" rules applies here: 1/3 divided by 4/5 = 1/3 * 5/4 = 5/12
