Answer:


1(1)/(3)

Explanation:

Given the following question:


5(1)/(3) /4

To find the answer convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions and then divide using KCF. (Keep, Change Flip)


5(1)/(3) /4

5(1)/(3) =3*5=15+1=16=(16)/(3)

(16)/(3) /4

4=(4)/(1)

(16)/(3) /(4)/(1)

Apply KCF:


(16)/(3) /(4)/(1)

(16)/(3) *(1)/(4)

16*1=16

3*4=12

=(16)/(12)

Simplify by reducing:


(16)/(12)

16/4=4

12/4=3

=(4)/(3)

Convert into mixed number:


(4)/(3)

(4)/(3) =4/3=1(1)/(3)

=1(1)/(3)

Which means your answer is "4/3 or 1 1/3."

Hope this helps.
