How do i show my working when trying to work out 3 1/3 divided by 4?

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing fractions, we use a rule where we keep the first number, change the sign, and flip the second number.

3 1/3 must be converted to an improper fraction before we can do this, though.

3 1/3 is 10/3 because we multiply 3 by the denominator, also 3, and then add one, so 10/3.

Now we can divide. Remember 4 is the same thing as 4/1

10/3 ÷ 4/1

Keep the first fraction the same, change the division sign into a multiplication sign, and divide by flip the second fraction.

It ends up looking like 10/3 x 1/4

Multiply: 10 x 1 and 3 x 4

It's 10/12, but we can simplify that by dividing both the top and the bottom by 2.

The final answer is 5/6

4
