Answer:


1 (5)/(8)

Explanation:

To figure out this problem we need to divide 6 1/2 by 4.

Convert any mixed numbers to fractions. Then your initial equation becomes:


(13)/(2) / (4)/(1)

Applying the fractions formula for division:


= (13 * 1)/(2 * 4)


= (13)/(8)

Simplifying 13/8, the answer is:


= 1 (5)/(8)
