Answer

385\frac{38}{5}

7357\frac{3}{5}

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Convert all mixed numbers to improper fractions.

    513=5×3+13=1635\frac{1}{3} = \frac{5 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{16}{3} 625=6×5+25=3256\frac{2}{5} = \frac{6 \times 5 + 2}{5} = \frac{32}{5} 113=1×3+13=431\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{4}{3} 115=1×5+15=651\frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 \times 5 + 1}{5} = \frac{6}{5}

    The expression becomes:

    34 of 163+325÷43−65\frac{3}{4} \text{ of } \frac{16}{3} + \frac{32}{5} \div \frac{4}{3} - \frac{6}{5}
  2. Perform the "of" operation (multiplication).

    34×163=3×164×3=4812=4\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{16}{3} = \frac{3 \times 16}{4 \times 3} = \frac{48}{12} = 4

    The expression is now:

    4+325÷43−654 + \frac{32}{5} \div \frac{4}{3} - \frac{6}{5}
  3. Perform the division operation.

    325÷43=325×34=32×35×4=9620\frac{32}{5} \div \frac{4}{3} = \frac{32}{5} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{32 \times 3}{5 \times 4} = \frac{96}{20}

    Simplify the fraction:

    9620=245\frac{96}{20} = \frac{24}{5}

    The expression is now:

    4+245−654 + \frac{24}{5} - \frac{6}{5}
  4. Perform addition and subtraction from left to right.

    First, add 4+2454 + \frac{24}{5}. Convert 4 to a fraction with a denominator of 5:

    4=4×55=2054 = \frac{4 \times 5}{5} = \frac{20}{5} 205+245=20+245=445\frac{20}{5} + \frac{24}{5} = \frac{20+24}{5} = \frac{44}{5}

    Now, subtract 65\frac{6}{5}:

    445−65=44−65=385\frac{44}{5} - \frac{6}{5} = \frac{44-6}{5} = \frac{38}{5}

    The answer can also be expressed as a mixed number:

    385=735\frac{38}{5} = 7\frac{3}{5}

    The value of the expression is 385\boxed{\frac{38}{5}} or 735\boxed{7\frac{3}{5}}.
