Question

9-2 1/2: 3 3/4-( 2 1/2- 1 1/3) * 12=

Answer 1

9-2 1/2: 3 3/4-( 2 1/2- 1 1/3) * 12= 9 - 3/2 : 15/4 - (3/2 - 4/3) = 9 - 2/5 - (3/2 - 4/3) = 9 - 2/5 - 1/6 = 270/30 - 12/30 - 5/30 = 253/30

Answer 2

Let's break down the given expression step by step:

First, let's simplify the expression inside the parentheses:

2 1/2 - 1 1/3 = (5/2) - (4/3) = (15/6) - (8/6) = 7/6

Now, we substitute this value back into the original expression:

3 3/4 - (2 1/2 - 1 1/3) * 12 = 3 3/4 - (7/6 * 12)

Next, let's simplify the expression inside the parentheses:

7/6 * 12 = 14

So, we substitute this value back into the previous expression:

3 3/4 - 14 = -10 1/4

Therefore, the final result of the expression 9-2 1/2: 3 3/4-( 2 1/2- 1 1/3) * 12 is -10 1/4.
