1/4 + 1/2 ..you cant directly add them as they are unlike fractions ..so to add then first convert them into like fractions ...for that find the LCM of the denominators ..2 and 4 ..
LCM of 2 and 4 is .. 4
so 1/4 + 1/2 will become 1/4 + 2/4 ...(because we multiplied 1/2 with 2 to make denominator as 4)

=> the answer is 3/4 ..

this is how i do ..

Hope it helps !!!

Find the value of the expression. 7! ÷ 3! 5,040 5,034 840 24

koban [17]

First, let's review what the "factorial operator" ! means.

5! = 5*4*3*2*1.

3! = 3*2*1

7! = 7*6*5*4*3*2*1

Then:

7! 7*6*5*4*3*2*1 7*6*5*4 5040
----- = ----------------------- = ------------- = ----------- = 5040 (answer)
3! 3*2*1 1 1
