What is the value of the numerical expression 5/8-5/12(3-1/4)+2/3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: make bottom numbers same
find least common multipules of 8,12,4 and 3
8=2 times 2 times 2
12=2 times 2 times 3
4=2 times 2
3=3
lcm=2 times 2 times 2 times 3=24

5/8 times 3/3=15/24
5/12 times 2/2=10/24
3/1 times 24/24=72/24
1/4 times 6/6=6/24
2/3 times 8/8=16/24
we now have
15/24-10/24(72/24-6/24)+16/24
pemdas
simplify parenthasees first
72/24-6/24=66/24

now we have
15/24-10/24(66/24)+16/24
multiply
15/24-660/576+16/24
make same bottom number
15/24 times 24/24=360/576
16/24 times 24/24=384/576
360/576-660/576+384/576
84/576
7/48

answer is 7/48

Which equations illustrate the associative property of addition? Choose exactly two answers that are correct. A. (11 + 2.2) + (–5) = 11 + [2.2 + (–5)]
B. –3 • (5 + 8.5) = –3 • 5 + (–3) • 8.5
C. + 1.8 = 1.8 +
D. –7 + [4 + (–2.1 • 6)] = (–7 + 4) + (–2.1 • 6)

Solutions

Associative Property is a rule that refers to grouping. The rule is "a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c".

The correct answers are (A) and (D)

(A) = (11 + 2.2) + (–5) = 11 + [2.2 + (–5)]

(D) = –7 + [4 + (–2.1 • 6)] = (–7 + 4) + (–2.1 • 6)
