Answer

[tex]1 \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

Solution

[tex]4 \frac{1}{2} \div 3[/tex]

[tex] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [/tex]

[tex]convert \: 4 \frac{1}{2} \: and \: 3 \: to \: an \: improper \: \\ fraction[/tex]

[tex]4 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{9}{2} [/tex]

[tex]3 = \frac{3}{1} [/tex]

[tex] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [/tex]

[tex]find \: the \: reciprocal \: of \: \frac{3}{1} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{3}{1} = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

[tex] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [/tex]

[tex] \frac{9}{2} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{9}{6} [/tex]

[tex] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [/tex]

[tex]find \: the \: lowest \: term \: of \: \frac{9}{6} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{9}{6} = \frac{3}{2} [/tex]

[tex] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [/tex]

[tex]since \: \frac{3}{2} \: is \:a \: improper \: fraction.. \\ we \: will \: change \: it \: to \: a \: mixed \: number[/tex]

[tex] \frac{3}{2} = 1 \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

[tex] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [/tex]

Sorry,im not good at explaining:3
