To divide by a fraction, you can multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 2/5 is 5/2.

So, 10 ÷ 2/5 can be rewritten as 10 * 5/2.

Multiplying across gives us (10 * 5) / 2 = 50/2.

This expression can be further simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the highest common factor, which is 2.

So, 50/2 simplifies to 25.

Therefore, the quotient of 10 ÷ 2/5 is 25.
