To divide 5 2/7 by 1 1/2, we first need to convert both mixed numbers into improper fractions.
5 2/7 can be written as (5 * 7 + 2) / 7 = 37/7.
1 1/2 can be written as (1 * 2 + 1) / 2 = 3/2.
Now, we can divide 37/7 by 3/2.
Dividing fractions can be done by multiplying the numerator of the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction: (37/7) * (2/3).
Multiplying the numerators (37 * 2) and the denominators (7 * 3), we get the result:
(37 * 2) / (7 * 3) = 74/21.
Therefore, the quotient of 5 2/7 divided by 1 1/2 is 74/21.
