Solve (6)-(-125)-(+57/12)=

$$( 6 ) - ( - 125 ) - ( + 5 \frac { 7 } { 12 } ) =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{1505}{12}\approx 125.416666667$$

Solution Steps

The opposite of -125 is 125.

$$6+125-\frac{5\times 12+7}{12}$$

Add 6 and 125 to get 131.

$$131-\frac{5\times 12+7}{12}$$

Multiply 5 and 12 to get 60.

$$131-\frac{60+7}{12}$$

Add 60 and 7 to get 67.

$$131-\frac{67}{12}$$

Convert 131 to fraction \frac{1572}{12}.

$$\frac{1572}{12}-\frac{67}{12}$$

Since \frac{1572}{12} and \frac{67}{12} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{1572-67}{12}$$

Subtract 67 from 1572 to get 1505.

$$\frac{1505}{12}$$

Factor

$$\frac{5 \cdot 7 \cdot 43}{2 ^ {2} \cdot 3} = 125\frac{5}{12} = 125.41666666666667$$
