21 Use properties of operations to find the quotient. 4 2/4÷6A.3 2/3B.26 2/5C.2/3D.11/15

first transform the mixed number


4(2)/(5)\longrightarrow((4*2)+2)/(5)=(22)/(5)

now do the division

we can represent the 6 as 6/1 to use the following method

where the red multiplication is the numerator and green the denominator

so


\begin{gathered} (22*1)/(6*5) \\ \\ (22)/(30)=(11)/(15) \end{gathered}

then the answer is 11/15
