Question

−3/4+(1/10÷2/5) I am so stuck on this problem! I think I know what the answer is but I'm just not sure if I'm right. Can someone please help?

Answer 1

Explanation:

According to the order of operations, you need to take care of what's inside the () first. Do this by flipping the second fraction upside down and then multiplying it by the first one:

`(1)/(10)*(5)/(2)=(5)/(20)=(1)/(4)`

Now you have

`(1)/(4) -(3)/(4)=-(2)/(4)=-(1)/(2)`
