Question

What is the value of the expression below after it has been completely simplified?

-2/0.25-0.5/+2

Answer 1

Equation is\[\frac{-2}{0.25}+\frac{-0.5}{2}\]
Change so they have the same denominator, here 2
\[\frac{-2*8}{0.25*8}+\frac{-0.5}{2}\]
\[\frac{-16}{2}+\frac{-0.5}{2}\]
Add common terms
\[\frac{-16-0.5}{2}\]
\[\frac{-16.5}{2}\]
\[-8.25\]
Hope that helped, @esther12345678
