Do you mean 24/(8/3)? Be careful how you write it because 24/(8/3) and (24/8)/3 are two completely different values.

We know that when a number is divided by a fraction or a fraction is divided by a number, we can invert the denominator and then multiply that by the numerator.

Therefore, 24/(8/3)=(24)(3/8)=9

Now, to show the difference between 24/(8/3) and (24/8)/3, the second equation is equivalent to:

(24/8)(1/3)=(24/24)=1
