You could use the keep change flip method. You keep the 5/8, change the division sign to a multiplication sign, and flip the 16. 16 can also be written as 16/1, because it is the equivalent to 16. You flip it to 1/16. Then do the math.

5/8 x 1/16=5/128.

Hope it helped! If not, tell me what went wrong.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] divided by [tex]\frac{16}{1}[/tex] . ←←equation

in order to divide , you have to cross-multiply .

5 x 1 = 5

16 x 8 = 128

therefore ,  the simplest , reduced fraction is

[tex]\frac{5}{128}[/tex]

i hope this helped:)
