To simplify the expression \( 114 \div 118 \), we can rewrite it as a fraction:
\[
\frac{114}{118}
\]
Next, we can simplify this fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and the denominator.
The GCD of 114 and 118 is 2, since both numbers are even. Now we can divide the numerator and the denominator by 2:
\[
\frac{114 \div 2}{118 \div 2} = \frac{57}{59}
\]
Since 57 and 59 have no common divisors other than 1, \( \frac{57}{59} \) is in its simplest form.
Thus, the simplified expression is:
\[
\frac{57}{59}
\] or \( 0.966... \)
If you meant to compare \( 114 \div 118 \) to the options provided (11-12, 11-4, 112, 114, 1112), they do not seem to relate directly to the simplified division result, so please clarify if you need a further specific comparison or different approach!
