Solve 6(3+7)+6*8/6(8-1)

$$\frac { 6 ( 3 + 7 ) + 6 \cdot 8 } { 6 ( 8 - 1 ) }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{18}{7}\approx 2.571428571$$

Solution Steps

Add 3 and 7 to get 10.

$$\frac{6\times 10+6\times 8}{6\left(8-1\right)}$$

Multiply 6 and 10 to get 60.

$$\frac{60+6\times 8}{6\left(8-1\right)}$$

Multiply 6 and 8 to get 48.

$$\frac{60+48}{6\left(8-1\right)}$$

Add 60 and 48 to get 108.

$$\frac{108}{6\left(8-1\right)}$$

Subtract 1 from 8 to get 7.

$$\frac{108}{6\times 7}$$

Multiply 6 and 7 to get 42.

$$\frac{108}{42}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{108}{42} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 6.

$$\frac{18}{7}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 \cdot 3 ^ {2}}{7} = 2\frac{4}{7} = 2.5714285714285716$$
