Simplify 5/2÷3/2÷2

Dividing by a fraction is accomplished by inverting
the fraction and multiplying. So, we have
5/2 * 2/3 * 1/2      (dividing by two is multiplying by 1/2)

The 2 in the first denominator is cancelled out by the
2 in the second numerator.

5/1 * 1/3 * 1/2

Multiply the numerators, and multiply the denominators.

(5 * 1 * 1) / (1 * 3 * 2)

5/6
