Math Problem Statement

n= 2 7×6 ​ + 81 ​ − 2 3×4

Solution

The given expression is:

n=27×6+81223×4n = \frac{2}{7 \times 6} + \frac{81}{2} - \frac{2}{3 \times 4}

To solve this, follow these steps:

  1. Evaluate the denominators in the fractions:

    • 7×6=427 \times 6 = 42
    • 3×4=123 \times 4 = 12
  2. Substitute the evaluated denominators back into the expression:

n=242+812212n = \frac{2}{42} + \frac{81}{2} - \frac{2}{12}

  1. Simplify the fractions:
    • 242=121\frac{2}{42} = \frac{1}{21}
    • 212=16\frac{2}{12} = \frac{1}{6}

Now the expression becomes:

n=121+81216n = \frac{1}{21} + \frac{81}{2} - \frac{1}{6}

  1. Find a common denominator to combine all the fractions. The least common denominator (LCD) of 21, 2, and 6 is 42.

    • Convert 121\frac{1}{21} to 242\frac{2}{42}
    • Convert 812\frac{81}{2} to 170142\frac{1701}{42}
    • Convert 16\frac{1}{6} to 742\frac{7}{42}

Now the expression becomes:

n=242+170142742n = \frac{2}{42} + \frac{1701}{42} - \frac{7}{42}

  1. Combine the fractions:

n=2+1701742=169642n = \frac{2 + 1701 - 7}{42} = \frac{1696}{42}

  1. Simplify 169642\frac{1696}{42}:

n=8482140.38n = \frac{848}{21} \approx 40.38

Thus, the value of n40.38n \approx 40.38.
