let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction, and then divide.
[tex]\bf \stackrel{mixed}{5\frac{7}{9}}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 9+7}{9}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{52}{9}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{52}{9}\div 3\implies \cfrac{52}{9}\div \cfrac{3}{1}\implies \cfrac{52}{9}\cdot \cfrac{1}{3}\implies \cfrac{52}{27}\implies 1\frac{25}{27}[/tex]
Answer:
1 25/27
Step-by-step explanation:
5 7/9 / 3 =
= 52/9 / 3
= 52/9 * 1/3
