Fraction Arithmetic
1. Stating the problem: Calculate the value of $\frac{7}{3} + \frac{5}{2} - 1$ divided by $12 - \frac{47}{4}$.
2. Convert all mixed numbers and whole numbers to improper fractions:
$2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}$,
$11 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{47}{4}$,
$1 = \frac{1}{1}$.
3. Calculate the numerator:
$\frac{7}{3} + \frac{5}{2} - 1 = \frac{7}{3} + \frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{1}$.
4. Find the common denominator for the numerator fractions ($6$):
$\frac{7}{3} = \frac{14}{6}$,
$\frac{5}{2} = \frac{15}{6}$,
$\frac{1}{1} = \frac{6}{6}$.
5. Sum the numerator fractions:
$\frac{14}{6} + \frac{15}{6} - \frac{6}{6} = \frac{14 + 15 - 6}{6} = \frac{23}{6}$.
6. Calculate the denominator:
$12 - \frac{47}{4} = \frac{48}{4} - \frac{47}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$.
7. Divide the numerator by the denominator:
$\frac{23}{6} \div \frac{1}{4} = \frac{23}{6} \times \frac{4}{1} = \frac{92}{6} = \frac{46}{3}$.
8. Simplify the final answer (improper fraction):
$\frac{46}{3} = 15 \frac{1}{3}$.
Final answer:
$$15 \frac{1}{3}$$
