Math Problem Statement

6/5 of 7/8*24/21of2425=2910

Solution

To solve the expression 657824212425\frac{6}{5} \cdot \frac{7}{8} \cdot \frac{24}{21} \cdot 2425, we need to simplify step-by-step:

  1. Simplify the product of the fractions: 65782421\frac{6}{5} \cdot \frac{7}{8} \cdot \frac{24}{21}

  2. Calculate the result of this product.

  3. Multiply the result by 2425.

First, let's simplify the fraction multiplication:

65782421\frac{6}{5} \cdot \frac{7}{8} \cdot \frac{24}{21}

We can multiply the numerators and denominators separately: 67245821\frac{6 \cdot 7 \cdot 24}{5 \cdot 8 \cdot 21}

Now calculate the products in the numerator and the denominator: 67245821=1008840\frac{6 \cdot 7 \cdot 24}{5 \cdot 8 \cdot 21} = \frac{1008}{840}

Next, simplify the fraction 1008840\frac{1008}{840}. We do this by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 1008 and 840. Using the Euclidean algorithm:

1008÷8401.2    remainder=1681008 \div 840 \approx 1.2 \implies \text{remainder} = 168 840÷1685    remainder=0840 \div 168 \approx 5 \implies \text{remainder} = 0

So, the GCD is 168.

Now, divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD: 1008÷168840÷168=65\frac{1008 \div 168}{840 \div 168} = \frac{6}{5}

So, the simplified form of the fraction product is 65\frac{6}{5}.

Now, we multiply this by 2425:

652425\frac{6}{5} \cdot 2425

First, perform the multiplication:

62425=145506 \cdot 2425 = 14550

Then divide by 5:

145505=2910\frac{14550}{5} = 2910

Thus, the expression simplifies correctly to 2910.
