Answer:
13/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert these numbers to a mixed fraction.
-5 3/4 => -23/4
-2 1/2 => -5/2
Make them have a common denominator
-5/2 => -10/4
-23/4 can stay the same.
To find the distance between the two numbers, subtract the lesser value from the greater value.
-23/4 is <u>less</u> than -10/4.
(-10 - (-23)) /4
= 13/4
Therefore the distance between -2 1/2 and -5 3/4 on a number line is 13/4.
Remember PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Divison, Addition and Subtraction)
Also note that Multiplication and Division needs to be done left to right and the same goes for Addition and Subtraction.
So in your problem, the first operation we need to do is division.
68 - (18/3) x 6
68 - 6 x 6
Now we do multiplication
68 - 6 x 6
68 - 36
Finally we do subtraction because that's the only operation we have left to do
68 - 36 = 32
So your answer should be 32.
