1. Problem Description

The problem is to evaluate the division of two numbers: a fraction 310\frac{3}{10} divided by a mixed number 1141\frac{1}{4}.

2. Solution Steps

First, we convert the mixed number 1141\frac{1}{4} to an improper fraction. To do this, we multiply the whole number part by the denominator and add the numerator. The result becomes the new numerator, and we keep the same denominator.
114=1×4+14=4+14=541\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1 \times 4 + 1}{4} = \frac{4 + 1}{4} = \frac{5}{4}
Now, we can rewrite the original problem as:
310÷54\frac{3}{10} \div \frac{5}{4}
To divide fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction:
310÷54=310×45\frac{3}{10} \div \frac{5}{4} = \frac{3}{10} \times \frac{4}{5}
Now we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:
310×45=3×410×5=1250\frac{3}{10} \times \frac{4}{5} = \frac{3 \times 4}{10 \times 5} = \frac{12}{50}
Next, we simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). The GCD of 12 and 50 is

2. $\frac{12}{50} = \frac{12 \div 2}{50 \div 2} = \frac{6}{25}$

3. Final Answer

The final answer is 625\frac{6}{25}.
