Answer:

y divided by 6 1/4 = 11 3/4

Explanation:

First, change the mixed numbers into improper fractions:

y divided by 25/4 = 47/4

Next, multiply both sides by 25/4:

y divided by 25/4 x 25/4 = 47/4 x 25/4

The 25/4's on the left side of the equation cancel each other out, leaving you with:

y = 47/4 x 25/4

Multiply 47 x 25 and keep the same denominator:

y = 1,175/4

Divide and:

y = 293 3/4
