To find the quotient of 8/9 ÷ 5, we need to divide 8/9 by 5.

Dividing 8/9 by 5 can be written as a fraction: (8/9) ÷ 5/1.

When dividing fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

So, (8/9) ÷ 5/1 can be rewritten as (8/9) * (1/5).

Multiplying the numerators gives us 8 * 1 = 8, and multiplying the denominators gives us 9 * 5 = 45.

Therefore, the quotient of 8/9 ÷ 5 is 8/45.
