You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{24 + 10}{2} + \frac{10 + 4}{7} - {2}^{3}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[\frac{24 + 10}{2} + \frac{10 + 4}{7} - {2}^{3} = 11\]


\[\begin{aligned}\frac{24 + 10}{2} + \frac{10 + 4}{7} - {2}^{3}& = \left(24 + 10\right) \cdot \frac{1}{2} + \left(10 + 4\right) \cdot \frac{1}{7} - 2^{3}\\& = \frac{34}{2} + \left(10 + 4\right) \cdot \frac{1}{7} - 2^{3}\\& = 17 + \left(10 + 4\right) \cdot \frac{1}{7} - 2^{3}\\& = 17 + \frac{14}{7} - 2^{3}\\& = 17 + 2 - 2^{3}\\& = 17 + 2 - 8\\& = 19 - 8\\& = 11\end{aligned}\]
