Answer:

40/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you're dividing the fraction -5/3 by the fraction -1/8.

Right off, we can simplify this by recalling that (-)(-) = (+), and so we have:

Divide 5/3 by 1/8.

There's a rule for dividing by a fraction:  Invert the fraction and multiply.  So, applying that rule here, we get:

5      8

---- * ---- = 40/3

 3      1
