    Answer:

    The answer is 8/15

    Step-by-step explanation:

    4/3 divided by 5/2 is the same as 4/3 times 2/5

    4/3 times 2/5= 8/15

    8/15 is the answer

    She is wrong because if you want to do it you have to multiply the fraction with 5 and then MULTIPLY it by 2 not divide it by 2.

    Hope this helps 🙂
