Question:

Which expressions are equivalent to ½ + 3c + ⅘.

Check all that apply.

Answer:

½ + 3c + ⅘ is equivalent to

1. ⅒(30c + 13)

2. 3c + 13/10

Explanation:

The options are not well presented.

However, I'll give simplify the given expression in the question above.

Given: ½ + 3c + ⅘.

Required: Simplify

We start by collecting like terms

3c + ½ + ⅘

From this point, the expression can be solved in two ways

1. Solve fractions

This gives [Find LCM]

3c + (5 + 8)/10

3c + 13/10

3c + ⅒(13)

This can still be solved further [Find LCM]

(30c + 13)/10

⅒(30c + 13)

Hence ⅒(30c + 13) is equivalent to ½ + 3c + ⅘.

2. Convert fractions to decimal

½ + 3c + ⅘ becomes

0.5 + 3c + 0.8

Collect like terms

3c + 0.5 + 0.8

3c + 1.3

Convert decimal to fraction

3c + 13/10

3c + ⅒(13)

This can still be solved further [Find LCM]

(30c + 13)/10

⅒(30c + 13)

Hence ⅒(30c + 13) is equivalent to ½ + 3c + ⅘.

This is as far as the expression can be evaluated
