Solve {l}{2*121/2}{101/2}

$$\left. \begin{array} { l } { 2 \times 12 \frac { 1 } { 2 } } \\ { 10 \frac { 1 } { 2 } } \end{array} \right.$$

Sort

$$\frac{21}{2},25$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 12 and 2 to get 24.

$$sort(2\times \frac{24+1}{2},\frac{10\times 2+1}{2})$$

Add 24 and 1 to get 25.

$$sort(2\times \frac{25}{2},\frac{10\times 2+1}{2})$$

Cancel out 2 and 2.

$$sort(25,\frac{10\times 2+1}{2})$$

Multiply 10 and 2 to get 20.

$$sort(25,\frac{20+1}{2})$$

Add 20 and 1 to get 21.

$$sort(25,\frac{21}{2})$$

Convert decimal numbers in the list 25,\frac{21}{2} to fractions.

$$25,\frac{21}{2}$$

To sort the list, start from a single element 25.

$$25$$

Insert \frac{21}{2} to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$\frac{21}{2},25$$

Evaluate

$$25,\ \frac{21}{2}$$
