23 1/2 = 23 + 1 / 2 = 46 / 2 + 1 / 2 = 47 / 2
23 1/2 / 4 = 47 / 2 / 2 = 47 / 2 ∙ 2 = 47 / 4 = 40 / 4 + 7 / 4 = 10 7/4
23 1/2 / 4 = 47 / 2 / 2 = 47 / 2 ∙ 2 = 47 / 4 = 40 / 4 + 7 / 4 = 10 7/4

My typo:
23 1/2 / 4 = 47 / 2 / 2 = 47 / 2 ∙ 2 = 47 / 4 = 44 / 4 + 3 / 4 = 11 3/4
By the way 7/4 = 1 3/4
Write answer as:
23 1/2 / 4 = 47 / 2 / 2 = 47 / 2 ∙ 2 = 47 / 4 = 44 / 4 + 3 / 4 = 11 3/4
23 1/2 / 4 = 47 / 2 / 2 = 47 / 2 ∙ 2 = 47 / 4 = 44 / 4 + 3 / 4 = 11 3/4
By the way 7/4 = 1 3/4
Write answer as:
23 1/2 / 4 = 47 / 2 / 2 = 47 / 2 ∙ 2 = 47 / 4 = 44 / 4 + 3 / 4 = 11 3/4
