To solve this problem, we will perform the division operation.

Step 1: Divide the numerator by the denominator.

8 ÷ 9 = 0.88889 (rounded to 5 decimal places)

Step 2: Divide the result by 5.

0.88889 ÷ 5 = 0.17778 (rounded to 5 decimal places)

Therefore, 8/9 ÷ 5 = 0.17778 (rounded to 5 decimal places).
the answer should be 8/45
I apologize for the mistake. Let's solve it correctly.

To divide a fraction by a whole number, you keep the numerator the same and multiply the denominator by the whole number.

8/9 ÷ 5 = 8/9 × 1/5 (since dividing by 5 can be written as multiplying by 1/5)

Now, let's multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

(8 × 1) / (9 × 5) = 8/45

Therefore, 8/9 ÷ 5 = 8/45.
