The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem step by step, we will first rewrite the mixed numbers and perform the necessary calculations. ### Step 1: Convert Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions - Convert \(9 \frac{4}{9}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 9 \frac{4}{9} = \frac{9 \times 9 + 4}{9} = \frac{81 + 4}{9} = \frac{85}{9} \] - Convert \(11 \frac{1}{3}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 11 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{11 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{33 + 1}{3} = \frac{34}{3} \] - Convert \(1 \frac{1}{3}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 1 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{3 + 1}{3} = \frac{4}{3} \] - Convert \(1 \frac{4}{5}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 1 \frac{4}{5} = \frac{1 \times 5 + 4}{5} = \frac{5 + 4}{5} = \frac{9}{5} \] - Convert \(2 \frac{1}{6}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 2 \frac{1}{6} = \frac{2 \times 6 + 1}{6} = \frac{12 + 1}{6} = \frac{13}{6} \] ### Step 2: Substitute the Improper Fractions into the Expression The expression now looks like this: \[ \frac{85}{9} \div \frac{34}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{6} + \left(\frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{9}{5} \div \frac{3}{5}\right) \cdot \frac{13}{6} \cdot \frac{2}{3} \div \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{2}{3} \] ### Step 3: Simplify Each Part 1. **First Part:** \[ \frac{85}{9} \div \frac{34}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{6} = \frac{85}{9} \cdot \frac{3}{34} \cdot \frac{1}{6} \] - Calculate: \[ = \frac{85 \cdot 3}{9 \cdot 34 \cdot 6} = \frac{255}{1836} = \frac{85}{612} \] 2. **Second Part:** \[ \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{9}{5} \div \frac{3}{5} = \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{9}{5} \cdot \frac{5}{3} = \frac{4 \cdot 9}{3 \cdot 3} = \frac{36}{9} = 4 \] - Now multiply by \(\frac{13}{6} \cdot \frac{2}{3} \div \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{2}{3}\): \[ 4 \cdot \frac{13}{6} \cdot \frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{3}{2} = \frac{13}{6} \cdot 2 = \frac{26}{6} = \frac{13}{3} \] ### Step 4: Combine Both Parts Now we combine both parts: \[ \frac{85}{612} + \frac{13}{3} \] Convert \(\frac{13}{3}\) to have a common denominator of 612: \[ \frac{13}{3} = \frac{13 \cdot 204}{3 \cdot 204} = \frac{2652}{612} \] Now add: \[ \frac{85}{612} + \frac{2652}{612} = \frac{2737}{612} \] ### Step 5: Convert to Mixed Number To convert \(\frac{2737}{612}\) to a mixed number: \[ 2737 \div 612 \approx 4.47 \quad \text{(4 whole parts)} \] Calculating the remainder: \[ 2737 - (612 \cdot 4) = 2737 - 2448 = 289 \] Thus, the mixed number is: \[ 4 \frac{289}{612} \] ### Step 6: Find the Difference from the Student's Answer The student's answer was \(19 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{77}{4}\). Convert \(\frac{77}{4}\) to have a common denominator of 612: \[ \frac{77}{4} = \frac{77 \cdot 153}{4 \cdot 153} = \frac{11841}{612} \] Now calculate the difference: \[ \frac{11841}{612} - \frac{2737}{612} = \frac{11841 - 2737}{612} = \frac{9114}{612} = 14 \frac{1}{2} \] ### Final Answer The difference between the student's answer and the correct answer is: \[ \boxed{14 \frac{1}{2}} \]
