The quotient is 8/15.
This means that there is only 8/15ths of a 5/8 in 1/3. *
To divide, invert the second fraction and multiply:
1/3 divided by 5/8 = 1/3 x 8/5 = 8/15
*To get 5/8, you would have to add another (7/15 of 5/8) to 1/3: 35/120 + 40/120 = 75/120 = 5/8

Three eighths divided by 1 and one third = 9/32
No. One third is 462/3% less than five eighths.
One and three fourths divided by five eighths = 24/5
2
It is 21/2.
The answer is 0.2. Expressed as a percentage, one third is 33.3. An eighth is 12.5, so one and five eighths (13 eighths) = 13 X 12.5 = 162.5. Therefore, your question is: what is 33.3 divided by 162.5? The answer is 0.2.
Three eighths divided by 1 and one third = 9/32
No. One third is 462/3% less than five eighths.
