Solve 5/2(2(2)+(5-1)3)

$$\frac { 5 } { 2 } ( 2 ( 2 ) + ( 5 - 1 ) 3 )$$

Evaluate

$$40$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 2 and 2 to get 4.

$$\frac{5}{2}\left(4+\left(5-1\right)\times 3\right)$$

Subtract 1 from 5 to get 4.

$$\frac{5}{2}\left(4+4\times 3\right)$$

Multiply 4 and 3 to get 12.

$$\frac{5}{2}\left(4+12\right)$$

Add 4 and 12 to get 16.

$$\frac{5}{2}\times 16$$

Express \frac{5}{2}\times 16 as a single fraction.

$$\frac{5\times 16}{2}$$

Multiply 5 and 16 to get 80.

$$\frac{80}{2}$$

Divide 80 by 2 to get 40.

$$40$$

Factor

$$2^{3}\times 5$$
