7.5 is the answer for this questio
I don't think that you put parentheses around any numbers because when I solve it with parentheses between numbers I get other numbers like 16 or 17
1a. Split the larger piece(1/3) into half to show the two pieces
1b. Both are 3/6 or 1/2
2a. It shows 1/2 +1/4
2b.cut it so there are 3 1/4 pieces, so cut the 1/2 piece horizontally in the middle
2c. 2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4. 1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
![-10+\left|6+\left(-17\right)\right|-\left(-14\right)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-10%2B%5Cleft%7C6%2B%5Cleft%28-17%5Cright%29%5Cright%7C-%5Cleft%28-14%5Cright%29)
![=-10+\left|6-17\right|+14](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D-10%2B%5Cleft%7C6-17%5Cright%7C%2B14)
Subtract.
![=-10+\left|-11\right|+14](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D-10%2B%5Cleft%7C-11%5Cright%7C%2B14)
Now, add.
![=4+\left|-11\right|](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D4%2B%5Cleft%7C-11%5Cright%7C)
Apply absolute rule.
![=4+11](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D4%2B11)
= 15
