Solve 512/24+72/4=

$$5 \frac { 12 } { 24 } + 7 \frac { 2 } { 4 } =$$

Evaluate

$$13$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 5 and 24 to get 120.

$$\frac{120+12}{24}+\frac{7\times 4+2}{4}$$

Add 120 and 12 to get 132.

$$\frac{132}{24}+\frac{7\times 4+2}{4}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{132}{24} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 12.

$$\frac{11}{2}+\frac{7\times 4+2}{4}$$

Multiply 7 and 4 to get 28.

$$\frac{11}{2}+\frac{28+2}{4}$$

Add 28 and 2 to get 30.

$$\frac{11}{2}+\frac{30}{4}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{30}{4} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$\frac{11}{2}+\frac{15}{2}$$

Since \frac{11}{2} and \frac{15}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{11+15}{2}$$

Add 11 and 15 to get 26.

$$\frac{26}{2}$$

Divide 26 by 2 to get 13.

$$13$$

Factor

$$13$$
