4 11/16÷1 1/4<br> answers:<br> 2 1/8<br> 2 1/4<br> 3 7/16<br> 3 3/4

SashulF [63]

Answer:

$\displaystyle3\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

$4\displaystyle\frac{11}{16} \div1\frac{1}{4}$

Change mixed numbers to improper fractions:

$= \displaystyle\frac{75}{16} \div\frac{5}{4}$

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal:

$= \displaystyle\frac{75}{16} *\frac{4}{5}$

Reduce:

$= \displaystyle\frac{75}{4} *\frac{1}{5}$

$= \displaystyle\frac{15}{4} *\frac{1}{1}$

$= \displaystyle\frac{15}{4}$

Change improper fraction into mixed number:

$= \displaystyle3\frac{3}{4}$

I hope this helps!
