Answer:

1/15 pie

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to do this is instead of dividing, multiply the denominator by 5. You get 15. You can say Im just making a coincidence, but try it yourself!

(1/3)/5 is basically multiplication. You may have heard the saying, "division with fractions is multiplication". Thats true. Turn 5 into 5/1 and multiply. 5/1x1/3.

you get 1/15. Hope it helps

Also you have to flip 5/1 to 1/5 and then multiply hehe. thats how you get 1/15
