Solve 5^0+2^-1+3^-1+6^-1?

$$5 ^ { 0 } + 2 ^ { - 1 } + 3 ^ { - 1 } + 6 ^ { - 1 } ?$$

Evaluate

$$2$$

Solution Steps

Calculate 5 to the power of 0 and get 1.

$$1+2^{-1}+3^{-1}+6^{-1}$$

Calculate 2 to the power of -1 and get \frac{1}{2}.

$$1+\frac{1}{2}+3^{-1}+6^{-1}$$

Add 1 and \frac{1}{2} to get \frac{3}{2}.

$$\frac{3}{2}+3^{-1}+6^{-1}$$

Calculate 3 to the power of -1 and get \frac{1}{3}.

$$\frac{3}{2}+\frac{1}{3}+6^{-1}$$

Add \frac{3}{2} and \frac{1}{3} to get \frac{11}{6}.

$$\frac{11}{6}+6^{-1}$$

Calculate 6 to the power of -1 and get \frac{1}{6}.

$$\frac{11}{6}+\frac{1}{6}$$

Add \frac{11}{6} and \frac{1}{6} to get 2.

$$2$$

Factor

$$2$$
