$1$

Knowing $PEMDAS$ , we have to start with the parenthesis, from left to right.

$40$ divided by $10$ is $4$ , so our expression is so far:

$4 ÷ (1xx4)$

We know that $1xx4=4$ , so the expression now turns into:

$4 ÷ 4 = 1$

Hope this helped!

$1$

There is only term, but several operations which we need to do.

Calculate the answer to each of the parentheses first and then divide them.

$(color(blue)(40 div10)) div color(red)((1xx4))$

$=color(white)(x)(color(blue)(4))" " div" " color(red)((4))$

$=4" "div" "4$

$=1$
