Answer 2

Given: $\frac{3}{8}$ ÷ $(\frac{5}{3} - \frac{1}{6})$ + $\frac{5}{8}$

To find: The given expression's value in fraction

Solution:

Applying BODMAS to solve the expression:

⇒ $\frac{3}{8}$ ÷ $(\frac{10 - 1}{6})$ + $\frac{5}{8}$

⇒ $\frac{3}{8}$ ÷ $\frac{9}{6} + \frac{5}{8}$

Taking reciprocal of  $\frac{9}{6}$

⇒ $\frac{3}{8}$ × $\frac{6}{9}$ + $\frac{5}{8}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{4} + \frac{5}{8} = \frac{2 \ +\ 5}{8} = \frac{7}{8}$

Hence, 3/8 ÷ (5/3 - 1/6) + 5/8 in fraction is equal to 7/8.
