(1/10 \ 1/2) * 3 + 1/5
for 1/10 \ 1/2 i got 1/5 but i don't know what to do with the rest
1/5 * 3 + 1/2=
F)4/5
G)4/15
H)16/25
J)3 2/5
K)none of these
what do i do
1/5 * 3 = 3/5
3/5 + 1/5 = ?
but i get 4/5 then the answer would be k then right
sorry my name was wrong nicky
To solve the expression (1/10 \ 1/2) * 3 + 1/5, we need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).
First, let's simplify the division part (1/10 \ 1/2). In this case, the backward slash "\ " represents the division operation.
To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
So, (1/10 \ 1/2) is equal to (1/10) * (2/1) which simplifies to (1/10) * (2/1) = 2/10.
Next, we can simplify the expression by multiplying 2/10 by 3, and then adding 1/5.
(2/10) * 3 + 1/5 = (6/10) + 1/5
To add fractions, we need a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 10.
(6/10) + 1/5 = (6/10) + (2/10)
Now, we can simply add the numerators, keeping the same denominator.
(6 + 2)/10 = 8/10
The fraction 8/10 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.
(8/2) / (10/2) = 4/5
Therefore, the answer is F) 4/5.
