Solve 145+1/4+7*1/2=145+33/4

$$145 + \frac { 1 } { 4 } + 7 \times \frac { 1 } { 2 } = 145 + 3 \frac { 3 } { 4 }$$

Verify

Solution Steps

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4, the least common multiple of 4,2.

$$580+1+28\times \frac{1}{2}=580+3\times 4+3$$

Add 580 and 1 to get 581.

$$581+28\times \frac{1}{2}=580+3\times 4+3$$

Multiply 28 and \frac{1}{2} to get \frac{28}{2}.

$$581+\frac{28}{2}=580+3\times 4+3$$

Divide 28 by 2 to get 14.

$$581+14=580+3\times 4+3$$

Add 581 and 14 to get 595.

$$595=580+3\times 4+3$$

Multiply 3 and 4 to get 12.

$$595=580+12+3$$

Add 580 and 12 to get 592.

$$595=592+3$$

Add 592 and 3 to get 595.

$$595=595$$

Compare 595 and 595.

$$\text{true}$$
