The value of 1(1/8) ÷ (4(1/4) ÷ 3/5 of 8(1/2) - 2/5 × 1(1/3) ÷ 4/5 of 1(2/3) + 11/20) is:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. ![]()
By solving using BODMAS,
⇒ 1(1/8) ÷ (4(1/4) ÷ 3/5 of 8(1/2) - 2/5 × 1(1/3) ÷ 4/5 of 1(2/3) + 11/20)
⇒ (9/8) ÷ (17/4) ÷ 3/5 of 17/2 - 2/5 × 4/3 ÷ 4/5 of 5/3 + 11/20)
⇒ (9/8) ÷ (17/4) ÷ 51/10 - 2/5 × 4/3 ÷ 4/3 + 11/20)
⇒ (27/20 - 2/5 × 1 + 11/20)
⇒ (27/20 - 2/5 + 11/20)
⇒ (38/30 - 2/5)
⇒ 30/20 = 3/2
⇒ ![]()
