What is 43/42 Divided By 4/1

Solving $\frac{43}{42}\div\frac{4}{1}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{43}{42} \div \frac{4}{1} = \frac{43}{42} \times \frac{1}{4}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $43 \times 1 = 43$
• Multiply the Denominators: $42 \times 4 = 168$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{43}{42} \times \frac{4}{1} = \frac{43}{168}$

Simplify - Since $\frac{43}{168}$​ is already in its simplest form (there are no common factors between $43$ and $168$ other than $1$), this is the final answer.

Answer $\frac{43}{42}\div\frac{4}{1} = \frac{43}{168}$
