To simplify the expression 12 - 4 ÷ 4/3 + 1, we follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).

First, we need to evaluate the division 4 ÷ (4/3). To divide by a fraction, we invert and multiply, so this becomes 4 * (3/4) which is equal to 3.

Now the expression becomes 12 - 3 + 1.

Next, we can simply perform the addition and subtraction from left to right:

12 - 3 + 1 = 9 + 1 = 10.

Therefore, the simplified expression is 10.
