Answer: 8 3/4

Explanation: Well in order to solve this equation, you must make the denominators equivalent. A common factor between 4 and 5 is 20. But since we multiplied the denominators, we have to do the same to the numerators. 3 x 5 = 15. 1 x 4 = 4. Our new fractions are now 1 15/20 and 4/20. Now that we have made our denominators equivalent, we can divide. 1 15/20 divided by 4/20 is 8 15/20. But we are not done yet, after we must simplify the fraction. Which would be 8 3/4.
