First, you want to convert 8+1/8 to an improper fraction by multiplying the denominator and whole number and then adding the numerator.

(8×8)+1

That should give you 65/8
When you divide by a fraction, you always multiply by the number's reciprocal. The reciprocal of 5/6 is 6/5.

(65×6)/(8×5)
390/40=39/4
39/4 can be made into three mixed number 9+3/4.
Since you can't divide anything, that is the simplest form. Hope this helped. If you're confused, let me know. :)
