Answer: 2/3

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we have 8/15 ÷ 4/5. Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In other words, we can change the division sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.

8/15 ÷ 4/5 can be rewritten as 8/15 × 5/4

Now, we are simply multiplying fractions so we multiply across the numerators and multiply across the denominators.

8/15 × 5/4 = 40/60 = 2/3
