Answer 2

Answer: 4.54 OR 109/24

Step-by-step explanation: BODMAS

53/6 - 47/8 + 19/12

To make all the denominators the same.

We first find out the LCM of 6,8 and 12.

The LCM of 6, 8 and 12 is 24.

= (53*4/6*4) - (47*3/8*3) + (19*2/12*2)

= 212/24 - 141/24 + 38/24

= 212 - 141 + 38/24

= 71 + 38/24

= 109/24

= 4.54
