Question

b)13.3/8+4.5/7×(19.3/17-5.3/17)

Answer 1

To simplify the expression:

Start by calculating the expression inside the parentheses:

19.3/17 - 5.3/17 = 14/17

Multiply 4.5/7 by 14/17:

4.5/7 × 14/17 = 2.7/17

Add 13.3/8 to 2.7/17:

13.3/8 + 2.7/17 = (13.3 × 17)/(8 × 17) + (2.7 × 8)/(17 × 8)

= 226.1/136 + 21.6/136

= (226.1 + 21.6)/136

= 247.7/136

Therefore, the simplified expression is 247.7/136.
