Simplify 1 frac 1 2 2 frac 1 3 times frac 3 4 -... - WAEC Mathematics 2010 Question
Simplify 1\(\frac{1}{2} + 2\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} - \frac{1}{2}\)
A
-2\(\frac{1}{3}\)
B
-2\(\frac{1}{4}\)
C
2\(\frac{1}{8}\)
D
2\(\frac{3}{4}\)
correct option: d
1\(\frac{1}{2} + 2\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} - \frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{3}{2} + \frac{7}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2} + \frac{7}{4} - \frac{1}{2}\)
= \(\frac{6 + 7 - 2}{4} = \frac{11}{4}\)
= 2\(\frac{3}{4}\)
\(\frac{3}{2} + \frac{7}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2} + \frac{7}{4} - \frac{1}{2}\)
= \(\frac{6 + 7 - 2}{4} = \frac{11}{4}\)
= 2\(\frac{3}{4}\)
