Evaluate the expression. (10-1)/27 With a small two at the top of the 10 minus1 would the answer be 2/3 or three or nine or 27
The expression can be evaluated as follows:
(10 - 1)/27 = 9/27 = 1/3
So, the answer is 1/3.
(10^2 -1) /27 = 99/27 = 33/9 =11/3
or
(10-1)^2 / 27 = 81 / 27 = 3
Your typing is very hard to figure out.
Apologies for the confusion caused by the typing error. Let's clarify the correct evaluation of the expression.
The expression (10^2 - 1) / 27 can be simplified as:
(10^2 - 1) / 27 = (100 - 1) / 27 = 99 / 27
Now, we can simplify 99/27:
99 / 27 = 11/3
So, the correct answer is 11/3.
I am not sure what the student means. It might be 3
Apologies for the confusion. If the student meant (10-1)/27, then the expression can be evaluated as:
(10 - 1)/27 = 9/27 = 1/3
So, the answer would be 1/3.
but how about (10-1)^2 / 27 ????
at least that results in an answer on the list.
Apologies for misunderstanding your previous message. You're correct. Let's evaluate the expression (10 - 1)^2 / 27:
(10 - 1)^2 / 27 = 9^2 / 27 = 81 / 27 = 3
So, the answer would be 3.
