Answer:

10

Explanation:

I believe it is 10 because 1/4 x 4 = 1 whole so if you do that again it gets you 8 leaving you with 1/2 to divide still so you do half and half of 4 is 2 meaning you are left with adding 8+2=10 hope this helps

Answer:

9

Explanation:

FIRST convert mixed number to an improper fraction (2 1/4 converts to 9/4)

FLIP 1/ 4 ....Now its 4/1

9/4 × 4/1 = 36/4 ....Which simplifies to NINE :)
