First, you need to change to improper fraction, 3 1/2=7/2
7/2 divide by 7/8, change 7/8 to 8/7 because we must flip the second number when we divide in fraction and change : to *
So now, 7/2*8/7=4
Here you go, Good Luck.

3-1/2 div. by 7/8
1st, express 3-1/2 as improper fraction: 7/2.
Then, multiply it by 8/7, the reciprocal of 7/8.
7/2 x 8/7 = 56/14
Now, reduce 56/14 to its lowest terms & that's the answer.
