Math Problem Statement

(-9/12) + (5/8) * (4/5) ÷ (4/12) + (3/4)

Solution

The text extraction from the image didn't yield any results. However, I can solve the expression visually.

The given mathematical expression is: (912)+58×45÷412+34\left(\frac{-9}{12}\right) + \frac{5}{8} \times \frac{4}{5} \div \frac{4}{12} + \frac{3}{4}

Step 1: Simplify the fractions

  1. Simplify 912\frac{-9}{12}: 912=34\frac{-9}{12} = \frac{-3}{4}

  2. 58×45\frac{5}{8} \times \frac{4}{5} simplifies to: 5×48×5=48=12\frac{5 \times 4}{8 \times 5} = \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2}

  3. Next, 12÷412\frac{1}{2} \div \frac{4}{12} simplifies to: 12×124=128=32\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{12}{4} = \frac{12}{8} = \frac{3}{2}

Step 2: Combine all terms

Now, we substitute these into the expression: 34+32+34\frac{-3}{4} + \frac{3}{2} + \frac{3}{4}

Step 3: Find the common denominator and add fractions

The common denominator for the fractions is 4:

  1. 32=64\frac{3}{2} = \frac{6}{4}
  2. Now, add them: 34+64+34=64=32\frac{-3}{4} + \frac{6}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

Final Answer:

The result of the expression is 32\frac{3}{2}.
