2-3(1/2)

Solution

2 - 3 (\frac{1}{2})

\frac{1}{2}

Solution steps

2 - 3 (\frac{1}{2})

Follow the PEMDAS order of operations

Multiply and divide (left to right)

3 (\frac{1}{2}) : \frac{3}{2}

3 (\frac{1}{2})

Apply rule:

(a) = a

(\frac{1}{2}) = \frac{1}{2}

= 3 \cdot \frac{1}{2}

3 \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2}

3 \cdot \frac{1}{2}

Convert element to fraction:

3 = \frac{3}{1}

= \frac{3}{1} \cdot \frac{1}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot c}{b \cdot d}

= \frac{3 \cdot 1}{1 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

3 \cdot 1 = 3

= \frac{3}{1 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 2 = 2

= \frac{3}{2}

= \frac{3}{2}

= 2 - \frac{3}{2}

Add and subtract (left to right)

2 - \frac{3}{2} : \frac{1}{2}

2 - \frac{3}{2}

2 - \frac{3}{2} = \frac{1}{2}

2 - \frac{3}{2}

Convert element to fraction:

2 = \frac{2 \cdot 2}{2}

= \frac{2 \cdot 2}{2} - \frac{3}{2}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

\frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \pm b}{c}

= \frac{2 \cdot 2 - 3}{2}

2 \cdot 2 - 3 = 1

2 \cdot 2 - 3

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= 4 - 3

Subtract the numbers:

4 - 3 = 1

= 1

= \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{1}{2}

(14 + 22) \div (7 - 3)

- 25 + (19) (2) - (6) (- 0)

9^{2} \cdot 3

\frac{125}{5} - 17 + 12 + 13 \times 6

(\frac{3}{4} + \frac{1}{7}) (\frac{- 2}{5})
