Simplify the following expression.
{3(2/3) of (3/4) - (1/4) of (4/3)} ÷ {(1/4) ÷ (3/2)} + 1(1/2)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 16
Given that
{3(2/3) of (3/4) - (1/4) of (4/3)} ÷ {(1/4) ÷ (3/2)} + 1(1/2)
= {(11/3) of (3/4) - (1/3)} ÷ {(1/4) * (2/3)} + 3/2
= {(11/4) - (1/3)} ÷ (1/6) + 3/2
= (29/12) ÷ (1/6) + 3/2
= 29/2 + 3/2
= 32/2 = 16
