Question

The value of 2/7 ( 5/8 + 1 /4) is

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of $\frac{2}{7}(\frac{5}{8}+\frac{2}{8} )$  is $\frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

$\frac{2}{7}(\frac{5}{8}+\frac{2}{8} )$

To find -

The value of $\frac{2}{7}(\frac{5}{8}+\frac{2}{8} )$  

Solution -

For simplifying we will use BODMAS,

As per BODMAS rule,

B for Bracket

O for Of

D for Divide

M for Multiply

A for Addition

S for Subtraction

Given ,

$\frac{2}{7}(\frac{5}{8}+\frac{1}{4} )$

1. solve the bracket

For addition of fraction number both the denominator should be same.

Multiply 1/4 by 2/2 we get

= $\frac{2}{7}(\frac{5}{8}+\frac{2}{8} )$

= $\frac{2}{7}(\frac{5+2}{8} )$

= $\frac{2}{7}( \frac{7}{8})$

2. Multiply

By opening bracket it becomes multiply

= $\frac{2}{7}\times \frac{7}{8}$

As 7 is get cut we get

= $\frac{2}{8}$

Divide 8 by 2 we get

= $\frac{1}{4}$

∴ The value of $\frac{2}{7}(\frac{5}{8}+\frac{2}{8} )$  is  $\frac{1}{4}$ .
