You could leave in fractions and do it like this.

[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{5}{8}}{\dfrac{1}{16}}\\  \\ \\\dfrac{5}{8}*\dfrac{16}{1}[/tex]

The second line shows that 1/16 becomes 16/1. The reason for that is when you have a 4 tier fraction, the bottom fraction is turned upside down and multiplied by the top fraction.

Now the 8 from the 5/8 will cancel into the 16 and the result is 2.

What you have now is 5 * 2 = 10

The final answer is 10
