The correct Answer is:
To solve the given expression step by step, we will first convert all mixed numbers into improper fractions and then perform the necessary operations. ### Step 1: Convert Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions 1. Convert \(2 \frac{1}{3}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{7}{3} \] 2. Convert \(2 \frac{1}{2}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 2 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2 \times 2 + 1}{2} = \frac{5}{2} \] 3. Convert \(5 \frac{2}{3}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 5 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{5 \times 3 + 2}{3} = \frac{17}{3} \] 4. Convert \(1 \frac{2}{3}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 1 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1 \times 3 + 2}{3} = \frac{5}{3} \] 5. Convert \(4 \frac{1}{4}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 4 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{4 \times 4 + 1}{4} = \frac{17}{4} \] 6. Convert \(3 \frac{1}{5}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 3 \frac{1}{5} = \frac{3 \times 5 + 1}{5} = \frac{16}{5} \] 7. Convert \(4 \frac{1}{2}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 4 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{4 \times 2 + 1}{2} = \frac{9}{2} \] 8. Convert \(5 \frac{1}{3}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 5 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{5 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{16}{3} \] 9. Convert \(2 \frac{2}{3}\) to an improper fraction: \[ 2 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{2 \times 3 + 2}{3} = \frac{8}{3} \] ### Step 2: Substitute the Improper Fractions into the Expression The expression now looks like: \[ \frac{\left(\frac{7}{3} + \frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{6}\right) \div \left(\frac{17}{3} \times \frac{5}{3} \div \frac{5}{3} \times \frac{17}{4}\right)}{\left(\frac{16}{5} \div \frac{9}{2} \times \frac{5}{3} + \frac{16}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} \div \frac{8}{3}\right)} \] ### Step 3: Simplify the Numerator 1. Find a common denominator for \( \frac{7}{3} + \frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{6} \): - The LCM of 3, 2, and 6 is 6. - Convert each fraction: \[ \frac{7}{3} = \frac{14}{6}, \quad \frac{5}{2} = \frac{15}{6}, \quad \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{6} \] - Combine: \[ \frac{14}{6} + \frac{15}{6} - \frac{1}{6} = \frac{28}{6} = \frac{14}{3} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the Denominator 1. Simplify \( \frac{16}{5} \div \frac{9}{2} \): \[ \frac{16}{5} \times \frac{2}{9} = \frac{32}{45} \] 2. Simplify \( \frac{16}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} \div \frac{8}{3} \): \[ \frac{16}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{12}{3} = 4, \quad \text{then } 4 \div \frac{8}{3} = 4 \times \frac{3}{8} = \frac{12}{8} = \frac{3}{2} \] 3. Combine: \[ \frac{32}{45} + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{32}{45} + \frac{67.5}{45} = \frac{99.5}{45} = \frac{199}{90} \] ### Step 5: Final Calculation Now we can substitute back into the expression: \[ \frac{\frac{14}{3}}{\frac{199}{90}} = \frac{14}{3} \times \frac{90}{199} = \frac{1260}{597} = \frac{420}{199} \] ### Step 6: Calculate the Difference The student's answer was \( \frac{6}{7} \). We need to find the difference: \[ \frac{420}{199} - \frac{6}{7} = \frac{420 \times 7 - 6 \times 199}{199 \times 7} = \frac{2940 - 1194}{1393} = \frac{1746}{1393} \] ### Step 7: Final Answer The difference between the correct answer and the student's answer is: \[ \frac{1746}{1393} \]
