Por lo tanto, 10 1/4 dividido por 5 1/2 es igual a 41/22 o aproximadamente 1,86 cuando se redondea a dos decimales.

Answer:

To divide two mixed numbers, we need to first convert them to improper fractions.

10 1/4 is the same as (10 x 4 + 1)/4 = 41/4

5 1/2 is the same as (5 x 2 + 1)/2 = 11/2

So, we need to divide 41/4 by 11/2:

(41/4) ÷ (11/2)

When dividing by a fraction, we can multiply by its reciprocal (flip the fraction):

(41/4) x (2/11)

Now, we can simplify by canceling out the common factors:

(41 x 2) / (4 x 11) = 82/44 = 41/22

Therefore, 10 1/4 divided by 5 1/2 is equal to 41/22 or approximately 1.86 when rounded to two decimal places.
