Explanation:

When you divide 3//53/5 by 77, you can think of it as making that 3//53/5 7 times smaller.

If 1//51/5 is what we get when we take a whole and chop it up into 5 equal pieces:

Then 1//(5*7)1/(57) or 1//351/35 is the value we get when we take 1//51/5 and divide it into 77 pieces:

And, of course, we have 3 of these divided pieces, giving us a total of 3*1//35=3//3531/35=3/35.
