1. Problem Description

The problem asks to calculate 117÷58\frac{11}{7} \div \frac{5}{8} and express the answer as a fraction in its simplest form.

2. Solution Steps

To divide fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

Now, multiply the numerators and the denominators:
11×87×5=8835\frac{11 \times 8}{7 \times 5} = \frac{88}{35}
Since 88 and 35 have no common factors other than 1, the fraction 8835\frac{88}{35} is already in its simplest form.

3. Final Answer

8835\frac{88}{35}
