$2 \frac{1}{2} \div \frac{3}{5}$
✓
Answer
We have,
$ \begin{aligned} 2 \frac{1}{2} \div \frac{3}{5} & =\left(\frac{2 \times 2+1}{2}\right) \div \frac{3}{5}=\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{5}{3}=\frac{5 \times 5}{2 \times 3} \\ & =\frac{25}{6}=4 \frac{1}{6} \end{aligned} $
$ \begin{aligned} 2 \frac{1}{2} \div \frac{3}{5} & =\left(\frac{2 \times 2+1}{2}\right) \div \frac{3}{5}=\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{5}{3}=\frac{5 \times 5}{2 \times 3} \\ & =\frac{25}{6}=4 \frac{1}{6} \end{aligned} $
