Dividing complex numbers written in polar form is fairly simple because there is a formula that makes it easy. For two complex numbers:

and

we can divide them using the formula:
(as long as is not zero).

Using this formula to divide your complex numbers we get:

which simplifies to

which is the answer in polar form. For standard form, a+bi, we replace the cos and sin with their values. 240 is a special angle so we don't need a calculator:

Distributing the 2 we get:
