(f)

Explanation
(a) 9 ÷ 2 = 4 remainder 1, so 9/2 = 4 + 1/2 = 4 1/2 (b) 9 ÷ 5 = 1 remainder 4, so 9/5 = 1 + 4/5 = 1 4/5 (c) 21 ÷ 19 = 1 remainder 2, so 21/19 = 1 + 2/19 = 1 2/19 (d) 47 ÷ 9 = 5 remainder 2, so 47/9 = 5 + 2/9 = 5 2/9 (e) 12 ÷ 11 = 1 remainder 1, so 12/11 = 1 + 1/11 = 1 1/11 (f) 19 ÷ 6 = 3 remainder 1, so 19/6 = 3 + 1/6 = 3 1/6
