Solution

Here is the step-by-step solution to each part of the problem:


a)

11001+11000\frac{1}{100} \cdot 1 + \frac{1}{100} \cdot 0

  • 11001=1100\frac{1}{100} \cdot 1 = \frac{1}{100}
  • 11000=0\frac{1}{100} \cdot 0 = 0
  • Result:
    1100+0=1100\frac{1}{100} + 0 = \frac{1}{100}

b)

0.210+0.120-0.2 \cdot 10 + 0.1 \cdot 20

  • 0.210=2-0.2 \cdot 10 = -2
  • 0.120=20.1 \cdot 20 = 2
  • Result:
    2+2=0-2 + 2 = 0

c)

1.721.06:(5.2)-1.7 - 21.06 : (-5.2)

  • Division: 21.06÷(5.2)=4.0521.06 \div (-5.2) = -4.05
  • Subtraction:
    1.7(4.05)=1.7+4.05=2.35-1.7 - (-4.05) = -1.7 + 4.05 = 2.35

d)

(1112+23):34\left(-\frac{11}{12} + \frac{2}{3}\right) : \frac{3}{4}

  1. Simplify inside the parentheses:
    • 1112+23=1112+812=312=14-\frac{11}{12} + \frac{2}{3} = -\frac{11}{12} + \frac{8}{12} = -\frac{3}{12} = -\frac{1}{4}
  2. Divide:
    14÷34=1443=13-\frac{1}{4} \div \frac{3}{4} = -\frac{1}{4} \cdot \frac{4}{3} = -\frac{1}{3}
  • Result:
    13-\frac{1}{3}

e)

(1615):(16+17)\left(\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{5}\right) : \left(\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{7}\right)

  1. Subtraction:
    • 1615=530630=130\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{5}{30} - \frac{6}{30} = -\frac{1}{30}
  2. Addition:
    • 16+17=742+642=1342\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{7} = \frac{7}{42} + \frac{6}{42} = \frac{13}{42}
  3. Division:
    130÷1342=1304213=42390=765-\frac{1}{30} \div \frac{13}{42} = -\frac{1}{30} \cdot \frac{42}{13} = -\frac{42}{390} = -\frac{7}{65}
  • Result:
    765-\frac{7}{65}

f)

1.8:1423(2.4)-1.8 : \frac{1}{4} - \frac{2}{3} \cdot (-2.4)

  1. Division:
    • 1.8÷14=1.84=7.2-1.8 \div \frac{1}{4} = -1.8 \cdot 4 = -7.2
  2. Multiplication:
    • 23(2.4)=4.83=1.6\frac{2}{3} \cdot (-2.4) = -\frac{4.8}{3} = -1.6
  3. Subtraction:
    7.2(1.6)=7.2+1.6=5.6-7.2 - (-1.6) = -7.2 + 1.6 = -5.6
  • Result:
    5.6-5.6

g)

(16+15)(1615)\left(\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{5}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{5}\right)

  1. Sum:
    • 16+15=530+630=1130\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{5}{30} + \frac{6}{30} = \frac{11}{30}
  2. Difference:
    • 1615=530630=130\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{5}{30} - \frac{6}{30} = -\frac{1}{30}
  3. Multiplication:
    1130(130)=11900\frac{11}{30} \cdot \left(-\frac{1}{30}\right) = -\frac{11}{900}
  • Result:
    11900-\frac{11}{900}

h)

(32312754):(2.5)\left(3 \frac{2}{3} - 1 \frac{2}{7} \cdot \frac{5}{4}\right) : (-2.5)

  1. Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions:
    • 323=1133 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{11}{3}
    • 127=971 \frac{2}{7} = \frac{9}{7}
  2. Multiplication:
    • 9754=4528\frac{9}{7} \cdot \frac{5}{4} = \frac{45}{28}
  3. Subtraction:
    1134528=3088413584=17384\frac{11}{3} - \frac{45}{28} = \frac{308}{84} - \frac{135}{84} = \frac{173}{84}
  4. Division:
    • 17384÷2.5=1738412.5=17384152=1732845=346420=173210\frac{173}{84} \div -2.5 = \frac{173}{84} \cdot \frac{-1}{2.5} = \frac{173}{84} \cdot \frac{-1}{\frac{5}{2}} = \frac{173 \cdot -2}{84 \cdot 5} = -\frac{346}{420} = -\frac{173}{210}
  • Result:
    173210-\frac{173}{210}
