Solve 5*1.42-5(2*1.42+1)=-3(4*1.42+5)

$$5 \times 1.42-5(2 \times 1.42+1)=-3(4 \times 1.42+5)$$

Verify

Solution Steps

Multiply 5 and 1.42 to get 7.1.

$$7.1-5\left(2\times 1.42+1\right)=-3\left(4\times 1.42+5\right)$$

Multiply 2 and 1.42 to get 2.84.

$$7.1-5\left(2.84+1\right)=-3\left(4\times 1.42+5\right)$$

Add 2.84 and 1 to get 3.84.

$$7.1-5\times 3.84=-3\left(4\times 1.42+5\right)$$

Multiply 5 and 3.84 to get 19.2.

$$7.1-19.2=-3\left(4\times 1.42+5\right)$$

Subtract 19.2 from 7.1 to get -12.1.

$$-12.1=-3\left(4\times 1.42+5\right)$$

Multiply 4 and 1.42 to get 5.68.

$$-12.1=-3\left(5.68+5\right)$$

Add 5.68 and 5 to get 10.68.

$$-12.1=-3\times 10.68$$

Multiply -3 and 10.68 to get -32.04.

$$-12.1=-32.04$$

Compare -12.1 and -32.04.

$$\text{false}$$
