Answer 2

Answer:

After simply  $\frac{5}{12}+\frac{1}{18} - \frac{2}{9}$ we get $\frac{1}{4}$ a result.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Given that,  $\frac{5}{12}+\frac{1}{18} - \frac{2}{9}$

For this question, we use the BODMAS rule for solving it.

• BODMAS rule - The Bodmas rule is arranged according to the letters in the acronym BODMAS, which stand for brackets, order of powers or roots, division, and multiplication, a stands for addition, and S for subtraction.

• According to the BODMAS rule, multi-operator mathematical equations must be resolved in the BODMAS order from left to right.

Step 1:

We have, $\frac{5}{12}+\frac{1}{18} - \frac{2}{9}$

According to the BODMAS rule, we first solve the addition part.

So, LCM of 12 and 18 is 36

⇒$(\frac{15 +2}{36} ) - \frac{2}{9}$

⇒ $\frac{17}{36} - \frac{2}{9}$

Now, we subtract it.

LCM of 36 and 9 is 36.

⇒ $\frac{17 - 4(2)}{36}$ = $\frac{17 - 8}{36}$ = $\frac{9}{36}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$

Final answer:

Hence, after simply  $\frac{5}{12}+\frac{1}{18} - \frac{2}{9}$ we get $\frac{1}{4}$ a result.
