Solve 2*5^3-(-1/7)

$$2 \cdot 5 ^ { 3 } - ( \frac { - 1 } { 7 } )$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{1751}{7}\approx 250.142857143$$

Solution Steps

Calculate 5 to the power of 3 and get 125.

$$2\times 125-\frac{-1}{7}$$

Multiply 2 and 125 to get 250.

$$250-\frac{-1}{7}$$

Fraction \frac{-1}{7} can be rewritten as -\frac{1}{7} by extracting the negative sign.

$$250-\left(-\frac{1}{7}\right)$$

The opposite of -\frac{1}{7} is \frac{1}{7}.

$$250+\frac{1}{7}$$

Convert 250 to fraction \frac{1750}{7}.

$$\frac{1750}{7}+\frac{1}{7}$$

Since \frac{1750}{7} and \frac{1}{7} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{1750+1}{7}$$

Add 1750 and 1 to get 1751.

$$\frac{1751}{7}$$

Factor

$$\frac{17 \cdot 103}{7} = 250\frac{1}{7} = 250.14285714285714$$
