Answer

To solve the problem \( \frac{33800}{520} \div 5 \), we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Rewrite the expression
We can rewrite the division as multiplication by the reciprocal:
\[ \frac{33800}{520} \div 5 = \frac{33800}{520} \times \frac{1}{5} \]

### Step 2: Combine the fractions
This can be combined into a single fraction:
\[ \frac{33800 \times 1}{520 \times 5} = \frac{33800}{2600} \]

### Step 3: Simplify the fraction
Now we need to simplify \( \frac{33800}{2600} \). We can do this by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 100:
\[ \frac{33800 \div 100}{2600 \div 100} = \frac{338}{26} \]

### Step 4: Further simplification
Next, we can simplify \( \frac{338}{26} \) by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 338 and 26. The GCD is 2, so we divide both by 2:
\[ \frac{338 \div 2}{26 \div 2} = \frac{169}{13} \]

### Step 5: Final division
Now we can perform the division:
\[ 169 \div 13 = 13 \]

### Final Answer
Thus, the final answer is:
\[ \boxed{13} \]
