Answer:

4090

Explanation:

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.5" was replaced by "(5/10)".

STEP 1: Simplify


(1)/(2)

Equation at the end of step 1:


(110+((1)/(2) ·
0))+3980

STEP 2:Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

2.1 Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 2 as the denominator :


110=(110)/(1) =(110x2)/(2)

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:


(110x2+0)/(2) =(110)/(1)

Equation at the end of step 2:


(110)/(1) =3980

Final Solution:

4090
