Solve 1-1/4-(-4*1)

$$1 - \frac { 1 } { 4 } - ( - 4 \times 1 )$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{19}{4}=4.75$$

Solution Steps

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{4}{4}.

$$\frac{4}{4}-\frac{1}{4}-\left(-4\right)$$

Since \frac{4}{4} and \frac{1}{4} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{4-1}{4}-\left(-4\right)$$

Subtract 1 from 4 to get 3.

$$\frac{3}{4}-\left(-4\right)$$

The opposite of -4 is 4.

$$\frac{3}{4}+4$$

Convert 4 to fraction \frac{16}{4}.

$$\frac{3}{4}+\frac{16}{4}$$

Since \frac{3}{4} and \frac{16}{4} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{3+16}{4}$$

Add 3 and 16 to get 19.

$$\frac{19}{4}$$

Factor

$$\frac{19}{2 ^ {2}} = 4\frac{3}{4} = 4.75$$
