Question

41 2/3 divided by 4 1/4

Answer 1

First, turn these mixed numbers into improper fractions, $41\frac{2}{3} = \frac{(41*3)+2}{3} = \frac{123}{3}$ and $4 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{(4*4)+1}{4} = \frac{17}{4}$. Next divide, which you do by flipping the second fraction and multiplying. $\frac{123}{3} / \frac{17}{4} = \frac{123}{3} * \frac{4}{17} = \frac{123*4}{3*17} = \frac{492}{51}$. If necessary, you could also turn this into a decimal, roughly 9.647, or back into a mixed fraction, $9 \frac{33}{51}$.
