Answer: 25/2 or 12 and 1/2

Step-by-step explanation: The two is next to the 1/2 so it is being multiplied by 2. You just multiply the denominator 2 by the 2 in front and get 4/2 + the 1/2 you already had making it 5/2 divided by 1/5.

Now to divide a fraction you flip the 2nd fraction and multiply the numerators and demonimators.

So it should be 5/2 x 5/1 which would equal 25/2 since 5x5 = 25 and 2x1 = 2

If the answer is meant to be improper it can stay as 25/2 but if it needs to be simplified the answer would be 12 and 1/2
