= $4,758,000K ÷ $16,301,000K

Whirlpool Corporation's debt-to-assets ratio has shown some fluctuations over the past few years. The ratio has generally ranged between 0.23 and 0.44, with the highest point observed at the end of March 2023 and the lowest at the end of March 2020. However, it seems that the ratio has stabilized at around 0.30 in recent quarters, indicating a more consistent level of debt relative to the company's total assets.
