The expression "1/3/4" can be interpreted in two different ways depending on the order of operations:
-
If you interpret it as \( \frac{1}{3} \div 4 \): \[ \frac{1}{3} \div 4 = \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{12} \]
-
If you interpret it as \( 1 \div 3 \div 4 \): \[ 1 \div 3 \div 4 = \frac{1}{3} \div 4 = \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{12} \]
In both interpretations, the result is the same.
Thus, \( 1/3/4 \) in fraction form is \( \frac{1}{12} \).
