Solve 7-3/4(-8)+12*5/6

$$7 - \frac { 3 } { 4 } ( - 8 ) + 12 \cdot \frac { 5 } { 6 }$$

Evaluate

$$23$$

Solution Steps

Express \frac{3}{4}\left(-8\right) as a single fraction.

$$7-\frac{3\left(-8\right)}{4}+12\times \frac{5}{6}$$

Multiply 3 and -8 to get -24.

$$7-\frac{-24}{4}+12\times \frac{5}{6}$$

Divide -24 by 4 to get -6.

$$7-\left(-6\right)+12\times \frac{5}{6}$$

The opposite of -6 is 6.

$$7+6+12\times \frac{5}{6}$$

Add 7 and 6 to get 13.

$$13+12\times \frac{5}{6}$$

Express 12\times \frac{5}{6} as a single fraction.

$$13+\frac{12\times 5}{6}$$

Multiply 12 and 5 to get 60.

$$13+\frac{60}{6}$$

Divide 60 by 6 to get 10.

$$13+10$$

Add 13 and 10 to get 23.

$$23$$

Factor
