Answer 1

When we divide mixed numbers we need to first convert it from mixed fractions to improper ones and then we divide them. When we divide fractions a common guideline is to conserve the first fraction and multiply it by the inverse of the second one. With this in mind let's solve the problem.

`\begin{gathered} (2+(2)/(3))\colon(4+(1)/(4)) \\ ((6)/(3)+(2)/(3))\colon((16)/(4)+(1)/(4)) \\ (8)/(3)\colon(17)/(4) \\ (8)/(3)\cdot(4)/(17) \\ (32)/(51) \end{gathered}`

The answer to this division is 32/51
