Multiply -1(1÷6×7 Write the problem as a mixed number.
To solve the expression -1(1/6 * 7), first find the product of the fraction and the whole number.
1/6 * 7 = 7/6
Next, multiply the resulting fraction by -1:
-1 * 7/6 = -7/6
The problem can be written as a mixed number by dividing the numerator by the denominator:
-7 ÷ 6 = -1 remainder 1
Thus, the problem can be written as the mixed number -1 1/6.
To solve this problem step-by-step, follow these steps:
Step 1: Begin by calculating 1 ÷ 6.
1 ÷ 6 = 0.166666... (repeating decimal)
Step 2: Then multiply the result by 7.
0.166666... × 7 = 1.166666... (repeating decimal)
Step 3: Finally, multiply the result by -1.
-1 × 1.166666... = -1.166666... (repeating decimal)
Therefore, the problem -1(1 ÷ 6 × 7) can be represented as a mixed number as -1 1/6 or -1 and 1/6.
To solve this problem and express the result as a mixed number, you need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS), which states that you should solve any calculations within parentheses or brackets first, followed by exponents (if any), then multiplication and division (from left to right), and finally addition and subtraction (from left to right).
The given problem is: -1(1÷6×7)
Step 1: Start by calculating the division within the parentheses.
1 ÷ 6 = 1/6, which can also be expressed as a decimal as approximately 0.1667.
Now the problem becomes: -1(0.1667 × 7)
Step 2: Multiply 0.1667 by 7.
0.1667 × 7 = 1.1669
Now the problem becomes: -1(1.1667)
Step 3: Multiply -1 by 1.1669.
-1 × 1.1667 = -1.1667
So, the answer to the problem -1(1÷6×7) is -1.1667.
Note: A mixed number typically consists of a whole number and a fraction. Since the given problem doesn't involve any whole numbers or fractions, we can't represent the answer as a mixed number in this case.
