The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \(2 \frac{1}{2} - 5 \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1 \frac{1}{5}}{1 \frac{1}{5}} = ?\), we will follow the order of operations and convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions where necessary. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions:** - \(2 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2 \times 2 + 1}{2} = \frac{5}{2}\) - \(5 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{5 \times 3 + 2}{3} = \frac{17}{3}\) - \(1 \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 \times 5 + 1}{5} = \frac{6}{5}\) Now the expression becomes: \[ \frac{5}{2} - \frac{17}{3} + \frac{6}{5} \div \frac{6}{5} \] 2. **Perform the Division:** - Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal: \[ \frac{6}{5} \div \frac{6}{5} = 1 \] So now our expression simplifies to: \[ \frac{5}{2} - \frac{17}{3} + 1 \] 3. **Convert 1 to a Fraction:** - \(1 = \frac{2}{2}\) Now the expression is: \[ \frac{5}{2} - \frac{17}{3} + \frac{2}{2} \] 4. **Combine the Fractions:** - To combine these fractions, we need a common denominator. The least common multiple (LCM) of 2 and 3 is 6. - Convert each fraction: - \(\frac{5}{2} = \frac{5 \times 3}{2 \times 3} = \frac{15}{6}\) - \(\frac{17}{3} = \frac{17 \times 2}{3 \times 2} = \frac{34}{6}\) - \(\frac{2}{2} = \frac{2 \times 3}{2 \times 3} = \frac{6}{6}\) Now the expression is: \[ \frac{15}{6} - \frac{34}{6} + \frac{6}{6} \] 5. **Combine the Numerators:** - Combine the fractions: \[ \frac{15 - 34 + 6}{6} = \frac{-13}{6} \] ### Final Answer: The final result is: \[ ? = -\frac{13}{6} \]
