Math Problem Statement

9(8-3) ÷ [6 ÷ 2 + (8 + 5)]

Solution

The equation visible in the image is:

9(83)÷[6÷2+(8+5)]9 \left( 8 - 3 \right) \div \left[ 6 \div 2 + (8 + 5) \right]

Let's break this down step by step:

  1. Simplify inside the parentheses first: \quad \text{and} \quad 8 + 5 = 13$$ So the equation becomes: $$9(5) \div \left[ 6 \div 2 + 13 \right]$$
  2. Simplify inside the brackets: \quad \text{so} \quad 3 + 13 = 16$$ Now the equation is: $$9(5) \div 16$$
  3. Multiply and divide: \quad \text{so} \quad 45 \div 16 = 2.8125$$

Thus, the result of the expression is 2.8125.
