If A = (3/2) + (4/7) of (14/12) and B = (5/12) of (7/15) × (36/21), then what is the value of A + B?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 5/3

A = (3/2) + (4/7) of (14/12) 

⇒ A= 3/2 + (4/7) × (14/12) = 3/2 + 2/3 = 13/6

B = (5/12) × (7/15) × (36/21) 

⇒ B = 1/3

Thus, A + B = 13/6 + 1/3 = 15/6 = 5/3
