The correct Answer is:
To evaluate the expression \( 5 \frac{1}{4} \times 3 \frac{5}{6} + 1 \frac{3}{5} \div 5 \frac{1}{3} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions First, we need to convert all mixed fractions into improper fractions. 1. **Convert \( 5 \frac{1}{4} \)**: \[ 5 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{5 \times 4 + 1}{4} = \frac{20 + 1}{4} = \frac{21}{4} \] 2. **Convert \( 3 \frac{5}{6} \)**: \[ 3 \frac{5}{6} = \frac{3 \times 6 + 5}{6} = \frac{18 + 5}{6} = \frac{23}{6} \] 3. **Convert \( 1 \frac{3}{5} \)**: \[ 1 \frac{3}{5} = \frac{1 \times 5 + 3}{5} = \frac{5 + 3}{5} = \frac{8}{5} \] 4. **Convert \( 5 \frac{1}{3} \)**: \[ 5 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{5 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{15 + 1}{3} = \frac{16}{3} \] Now, we can rewrite the expression: \[ \frac{21}{4} \times \frac{23}{6} + \frac{8}{5} \div \frac{16}{3} \] ### Step 2: Perform Division Next, we handle the division part first: \[ \frac{8}{5} \div \frac{16}{3} = \frac{8}{5} \times \frac{3}{16} \] Now, multiply: \[ \frac{8 \times 3}{5 \times 16} = \frac{24}{80} \] We can simplify \( \frac{24}{80} \): \[ \frac{24 \div 8}{80 \div 8} = \frac{3}{10} \] ### Step 3: Perform Multiplication Now we have: \[ \frac{21}{4} \times \frac{23}{6} + \frac{3}{10} \] Let's calculate \( \frac{21}{4} \times \frac{23}{6} \): \[ \frac{21 \times 23}{4 \times 6} = \frac{483}{24} \] ### Step 4: Add the Two Fractions Now we need to add \( \frac{483}{24} + \frac{3}{10} \). To do this, we need a common denominator. The LCM of 24 and 10 is 120. Convert both fractions: 1. **Convert \( \frac{483}{24} \)**: \[ \frac{483 \times 5}{24 \times 5} = \frac{2415}{120} \] 2. **Convert \( \frac{3}{10} \)**: \[ \frac{3 \times 12}{10 \times 12} = \frac{36}{120} \] Now we can add: \[ \frac{2415}{120} + \frac{36}{120} = \frac{2415 + 36}{120} = \frac{2451}{120} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the Result Now, we simplify \( \frac{2451}{120} \): - The GCD of 2451 and 120 is 3. \[ \frac{2451 \div 3}{120 \div 3} = \frac{817}{40} \] Thus, the final answer is: \[ \frac{817}{40} \]
