Hi!

To divide a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

First, convert the mixed numbers to fractions, by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding that to the numerator.

---------------

2 * 7 = 14

14 + 1 = 15

15/7

---------------

4 * 1 = 4

4 + 1 = 5

5/4

---------------

[tex]\frac{15}{7} * \frac{4}{5} = \frac{60}{35} (simplify) = 1 \frac{5}{7}[/tex]

The answer is 1 5/7

Hope this helps! :)
