Solve 81/2+16/1=

$$8 \frac{ 1 }{ 2 } + \frac{ 16 }{ 1 } =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{49}{2}=24.5$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 8 and 2 to get 16.

$$\frac{16+1}{2}+\frac{16}{1}$$

Add 16 and 1 to get 17.

$$\frac{17}{2}+\frac{16}{1}$$

Anything divided by one gives itself.

$$\frac{17}{2}+16$$

Convert 16 to fraction \frac{32}{2}.

$$\frac{17}{2}+\frac{32}{2}$$

Since \frac{17}{2} and \frac{32}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{17+32}{2}$$

Add 17 and 32 to get 49.

$$\frac{49}{2}$$

Factor

$$\frac{7 ^ {2}}{2} = 24\frac{1}{2} = 24.5$$
