How do you simplify #2/5 times 2/3 +1/5 div 2/3#?

Answer 1

#17/30#

Always count the terms. Reduce each term to a single answer. Work in brackets first. The strongest operations are multiplication and division, followed by addition and subtraction, power and roots, and finally, addition and subtraction.

There are 2 terms. #color(blue)(2/5xx2/3) +color(red)(1/5 div 2/3)#

=#color(blue)(4/15) +color(red)(1/5 xx3/2)#

=#color(blue)(4/15) +color(red)(3/10)#

=#(8+9)/30#

=#17/30#

# 17/30 #

Given that there are no parenthesis or exponents, we can reduce this question to DMAS using PEDMAS. Since division and multiplication have equal precedence, we must compute the division and multiplication before adding the corresponding answers.

# rArr 2/5 xx 2/3 + 1/5 xx 3/2 = 4/15 + 3/10 #

The row length is 4/15 + 3/10 = 8/30 + 9/30 = 17/30.
