3.5 divided by 2/3
convert 3.5 to 3 and 1/2 then to 7/2

(7/2)/(2/3)
remember that
[tex]\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{d}}=\frac{ad}{bc}[/tex]

so
[tex]\frac{\frac{7}{2}}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{(7)(3)}{(2)(2)}=\frac{21}{4}=[/tex]
[tex]\frac{20}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=[/tex] 5 and 1/4 liters per hour or 5.25 liters per hour
