Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract and no choices

SourMunchkin7806:

How do you answer this question then you just type it in a box?

22west:

yeah

SourMunchkin7806:

Ok well lets convert to decimals those are much easier to play with. You mind doing that for me?

22west:

ok

SourMunchkin7806:

I am gonna be helping someone else while i wait for that ok. :D

22west:

ok

22west:

2/9 = 0.222222222222222 1/3 = 0.333333333333333 3/5 = 0.6

SourMunchkin7806:

Ok so divide what is in the parenthesis first. Tell me what you get from that.

22west:

0.55555555555556

SourMunchkin7806:

ok now do 0.222222222-0.5555555 and tell me what you get

22west:

-0.333333278

SourMunchkin7806:

So that should be your answer.

22west:

i need it in fraction form

SourMunchkin7806:

Do know how to convert back to a fraction?

22west:

yes

SourMunchkin7806:

So convert it to a fraction and that should be the answer.

22west:

\[\frac{ 166666639 }{ 500000000 }\]

SourMunchkin7806:

So that should be the answer

22west:

SourMunchkin7806:

No prob. Good luck!

SourMunchkin7806:

Ok yea ask away.

22west:

\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\](−32.48−14.02)​ Enter your answer, as a decimal to tenths, in the box.

22west:

1/3(−32.48−14.02)​ Enter your answer, as a decimal to tenths, in the box.

SourMunchkin7806:

So what are you supposed to do?

SourMunchkin7806:

Oh ok.

SourMunchkin7806:

Ok well do what we did before. Convert to a decimal, after complete what is in the parenthesis and then subtract that from your converted decimal of 1/3.

22west:

0.33333333333333

SourMunchkin7806:

So that is the converted decimal?

22west:

yes

SourMunchkin7806:

Ok so now do what is in the parenthesis and then subtract that from the 0.333333. Let me know what you get

22west:

-46.5

22west:
