To solve this problem let's calculate each choice.

We have to check if the fraction on the right side equals the number we are trying to divide.

For example:

31 14/29 = 31 x 29 + 14 = 913 => Ok!

53 5/16 = 53 x 16 + 5 = 853 => Not ok!

4 8/25 = 4 x 25 + 8 = 108 => Not ok!

For last choice we get

53.25 x 16 = 852

However, the exercise tells us to find a fraction, so this choice is not okay either.

Answer: 31 14/29 = 31 x 29 + 14 = 913


31(14)/(29)=31*29+14=913
