Question

state whether the statements are true or false b) 3/2-(1/4-6/8)=(3/2-1/4)-6/8​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given statement

3/ 2 - (1/4 - 6/8) = (3/2 - 1/4) - 6/8

LHS = 3/ 2 - (1/4 - 6/8)

=> LHS = 3 / 2 - [(8 - 6) / (4 * 8)]

=> LHS = 3 / 2 - 2 / 32

=> LHS = (96 - 4) / (2 * 32)

=> LHS = 92 / 64

=> LHS = 23 / 16

RHS = (3/2 - 1/4) - 6/8

=> RHS = [(12 - 2) / (2 * 4)] - 6 / 8

=> RHS = 10 / 8 - 6 / 8

=> RHS = (80 - 48) / (8 * 8)

=> RHS = 32 / 64

=> RHS = 1 / 4

Hence,

LHS ≠ RHS

So,

Given statement is false.
