Question

Answer 1

i mean simplify sorry

Answer 2

Divide by 5 on the top and bottom:

1/2.9

Or you could switch that to improper fractions and play with it a little:

14.5= 14+ (1/2) = 29/2, so
5/14.5 = 5/(29/2)
Multiply by 2 on the top and the bottom
= 10/29
You can leave it like this, because it's not normal to have decimal notations in fractions, or you could divide by 10 on top and bottom:
= 1/2.9
