Solve 2(1+1/2)/1*frac{1{2}}

$$\frac { 2 ( 1 + \frac { 1 } { 2 } ) } { 1 \times \frac { 1 } { 2 } }$$

Evaluate

$$6$$

Solution Steps

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{2}{2}.

$$\frac{2\left(\frac{2}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\right)}{1\times \frac{1}{2}}$$

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

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

Add 2 and 1 to get 3.

$$\frac{2\times \frac{3}{2}}{1\times \frac{1}{2}}$$

Cancel out 2 and 2.

$$\frac{3}{1\times \frac{1}{2}}$$

Multiply 1 and \frac{1}{2} to get \frac{1}{2}.

$$\frac{3}{\frac{1}{2}}$$

Divide 3 by \frac{1}{2} by multiplying 3 by the reciprocal of \frac{1}{2}.

$$3\times 2$$

Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.

$$6$$

Factor

$$2\times 3$$
