To solve this problem, we need to remember the order of operations (PEMDAS) which tells us to perform the division before the fraction.
First, let's divide 7 by 4:
7 ÷ 4 = 1.75
Now, we need to divide 1.75 by 5:
1.75 ÷ 5 = 0.35
Therefore, the quotient of 7 ÷ 4/5 is 0.35, which can also be written as 4/35.
Therefore, the correct answer is 4/35.

wrong yet again!
how do you assert that 0.35 = 4/35? It is 35/100 = 7/20
Looking at the choices, it is clear that the user meant
7 ÷ 4/5 = 7 * 5/4 = 35/4 = 8 3/4

You are correct, and I apologize for the error in my previous response. Thank you for pointing out the mistake.
To find the quotient of 7 ÷ 4/5, we can rewrite it as a multiplication problem:
7 ÷ 4/5 = 7 * 5/4
Now, we can multiply the numerators and denominators:
7 * 5 = 35
4 * 1 = 4
Therefore, the quotient of 7 ÷ 4/5 is 35/4, which can be simplified to 8 3/4.
Once again, I apologize for the confusion and thank you for correcting me. The correct answer is indeed 8 3/4.
