$$3\div2\frac{1}{4}$$

$\frac{4}{3}\approx 1.333333333$

Divide $3$ by $\frac{2\times 4+1}{4}$ by multiplying $3$ by the reciprocal of $\frac{2\times 4+1}{4}$.

$$\frac{3\times 4}{2\times 4+1}$$

Multiply $3$ and $4$ to get $12$.

$$\frac{12}{2\times 4+1}$$

Multiply $2$ and $4$ to get $8$.

$$\frac{12}{8+1}$$

Add $8$ and $1$ to get $9$.

$$\frac{12}{9}$$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{12}{9}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $3$.

$$\frac{4}{3}$$

$\frac{2 ^ {2}}{3} = 1\frac{1}{3} = 1.3333333333333333$
