Solve 12^3/2+2/4

$$\frac { 12 ^ { 3 } } { 2 } + \frac { 2 } { 4 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{1729}{2}=864.5$$

Solution Steps

Calculate 12 to the power of 3 and get 1728.

$$\frac{1728}{2}+\frac{2}{4}$$

Divide 1728 by 2 to get 864.

$$864+\frac{2}{4}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{4} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$864+\frac{1}{2}$$

Convert 864 to fraction \frac{1728}{2}.

$$\frac{1728}{2}+\frac{1}{2}$$

Since \frac{1728}{2} and \frac{1}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{1728+1}{2}$$

Add 1728 and 1 to get 1729.

$$\frac{1729}{2}$$

Factor

$$\frac{7 \cdot 13 \cdot 19}{2} = 864\frac{1}{2} = 864.5$$
