Answer :

Answer:

To divide \(7 \frac{2}{5}\) by 37, first, convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction:

\[ 7 \frac{2}{5} = \frac{(7 \times 5) + 2}{5} = \frac{35 + 2}{5} = \frac{37}{5} \]

Now, divide the improper fraction by 37:

\[ \frac{37}{5} \div 37 \]

When dividing by a whole number, you can multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the divisor:

\[ \frac{37}{5} \div 37 = \frac{37}{5} \times \frac{1}{37} \]

\[ = \frac{37 \times 1}{5 \times 37} \]

\[ = \frac{1}{5} \]

So, \(7 \frac{2}{5}\) divided by 37 equals \(\frac{1}{5}\).
