Solve 25(0.25-1)(0.25+1)(-0.384)/6

$$\frac { 25 ( 0.25 - 1 ) ( 0.25 + 1 ) ( - 0.384 ) } { 6 }$$

Evaluate

$$1.5$$

Solution Steps

Subtract 1 from 0.25 to get -0.75.

$$\frac{25\left(-0.75\right)\left(0.25+1\right)\left(-0.384\right)}{6}$$

Multiply 25 and -0.75 to get -18.75.

$$\frac{-18.75\left(0.25+1\right)\left(-0.384\right)}{6}$$

Add 0.25 and 1 to get 1.25.

$$\frac{-18.75\times 1.25\left(-0.384\right)}{6}$$

Multiply -18.75 and 1.25 to get -23.4375.

$$\frac{-23.4375\left(-0.384\right)}{6}$$

Multiply -23.4375 and -0.384 to get 9.

$$\frac{9}{6}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{9}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

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

Factor

$$\frac{3}{2} = 1\frac{1}{2} = 1.5$$
