Math Problem Statement

[24 - 2 * (5 + 6)^2 + 7 * (10 - 32 / 16)] / [7^2 * (4 + 2^5)]

Solution

Let's break down and solve the given expression step by step.

The expression is:

[242(5+6)2]+7(103216)72(4+25)\frac{[24 - 2 \cdot (5 + 6)^2] + 7 \cdot (10 - \frac{32}{16})}{7^2 \cdot (4 + 2^5)}

Step 1: Solve inside the parentheses and exponents.

  • 5+6=115 + 6 = 11
  • (5+6)2=112=121(5 + 6)^2 = 11^2 = 121
  • 3216=2\frac{32}{16} = 2
  • 102=810 - 2 = 8
  • 25=322^5 = 32

Now the expression becomes:

[242121]+7872(4+32)\frac{[24 - 2 \cdot 121] + 7 \cdot 8}{7^2 \cdot (4 + 32)}

Step 2: Simplify multiplication and addition.

  • 2121=2422 \cdot 121 = 242
  • 24242=21824 - 242 = -218
  • 78=567 \cdot 8 = 56
  • 72=497^2 = 49
  • 4+32=364 + 32 = 36

Now the expression becomes:

218+564936\frac{-218 + 56}{49 \cdot 36}

Step 3: Simplify the numerator and denominator.

  • 218+56=162-218 + 56 = -162
  • 4936=176449 \cdot 36 = 1764

Now the expression becomes:

1621764\frac{-162}{1764}

Step 4: Simplify the fraction.

1621764=110.888\frac{-162}{1764} = \frac{-1}{10.888}

The approximate result is:

0.091-0.091

Thus, the final answer is approximately -0.091.
