(24+10)/2+(10+4)/7-2
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{24 + 10}{2} + \frac{10 + 4}{7} - 2\)
MathBot Answer:
\[\frac{24 + 10}{2} + \frac{10 + 4}{7} - 2 = 17\]
\[\begin{aligned}\frac{24 + 10}{2} + \frac{10 + 4}{7} - 2& = \left(24 + 10\right) \cdot \frac{1}{2} + \left(10 + 4\right) \cdot \frac{1}{7} - 2\\& = \frac{34}{2} + \left(10 + 4\right) \cdot \frac{1}{7} - 2\\& = 17 + \left(10 + 4\right) \cdot \frac{1}{7} - 2\\& = 17 + \frac{14}{7} - 2\\& = 17 + 2 - 2\\& = 19 - 2\\& = 17\end{aligned}\]
