Solve 3-1/4+1/2/frac{3{4}}=

$$3 - \frac { \frac { 1 } { 4 } + \frac { 1 } { 2 } } { \frac { 3 } { 4 } } =$$

Evaluate

$$2$$

Solution Steps

Least common multiple of 4 and 2 is 4. Convert \frac{1}{4} and \frac{1}{2} to fractions with denominator 4.

$$3-\frac{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{4}}{\frac{3}{4}}$$

Since \frac{1}{4} and \frac{2}{4} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$3-\frac{\frac{1+2}{4}}{\frac{3}{4}}$$

Add 1 and 2 to get 3.

$$3-\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{3}{4}}$$

Divide \frac{3}{4} by \frac{3}{4} to get 1.

$$3-1$$

Subtract 1 from 3 to get 2.

$$2$$

Factor

$$2$$
