Solve 8*(5+5)+8*6/8*(7-1)

$$\frac { 8 \cdot ( 5 + 5 ) + 8 \cdot 6 } { 8 \cdot ( 7 - 1 ) }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{8}{3}\approx 2.666666667$$

Solution Steps

Add 5 and 5 to get 10.

$$\frac{8\times 10+8\times 6}{8\left(7-1\right)}$$

Multiply 8 and 10 to get 80.

$$\frac{80+8\times 6}{8\left(7-1\right)}$$

Multiply 8 and 6 to get 48.

$$\frac{80+48}{8\left(7-1\right)}$$

Add 80 and 48 to get 128.

$$\frac{128}{8\left(7-1\right)}$$

Subtract 1 from 7 to get 6.

$$\frac{128}{8\times 6}$$

Multiply 8 and 6 to get 48.

$$\frac{128}{48}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{128}{48} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 16.

$$\frac{8}{3}$$
