Answer:

The answer as a mixed number is
=15(3)/(4).

Explanation:

Given:

5 1/4 ÷ 1/3.

Now, to solve as a mixed number in simplest form.


5(1)/(4) / (1)/(3)

Now, changing the mixed fraction into improper:


=(21)/(4) / (1)/(3)

So, to solve we change the division into multiplication.

Thus, R.H.S of the fraction will get reverse:


=(21)/(4) * (3)/(1)


=(63)/(4)

Now, changing the improper fraction into mixed:


=15(3)/(4) .

Therefore, the answer as a mixed number is
=15(3)/(4) .
