Answer 10

two divided by three−eighths
\[ 2 \div \frac{3}{8} \]
to divide a number (or a fraction) by a fraction, flip the 2nd fraction and multiply
\[ 2 \div \frac{3}{8} \text{ becomes } 2 \cdot \frac{8}{3} \]
you get \(\frac{16}{3}\) or \( 5\frac{1}{3}\) or \(5.\bar3\)

If you think of a ruler, you might see there are a lot of 3/8 ths of an inch in 2 inches
