so here we go ;

3 1/3 ÷ 4 4/5

10/3 ÷ 24/5

change the division sign to multiplication one and reciprocate the right fraction !

=10/3 x 5/24

cut 10 and 24 with 10 being 5 and 24 , 12

=5/3 x 5/12

now multipy, u get 

=25/36    ANSWER !

All right so we have

$$3\frac{1}{3} = \frac{9}{3}+\frac{1}{3} = \frac{10}{3} = \frac{10*5}{3*5} = \frac{50}{15}$$

and

$$4\frac{4}{5} = \frac{20}{5}+\frac{4}{5} = \frac{24}{5} = \frac{24*3}{5*3} = \frac{72}{15}$$

Then

$$\frac{\frac{50}{15}}{\frac{72}{15}} = \frac{50}{72} = \frac{25}{36}$$
