Evaluate, correct to the nearest whole number \(7\frac{1}{2}-\left(2\frac{1}{2}+3\right)\div\frac{33}{2}\)
- 33
- 8
-
7
- o
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
\(7\frac{1}{2}-\left(2\frac{1}{2}+3\right)\div\frac{33}{2}\\
=\frac{15}{2}-\left(\frac{5}{2}+\frac{3}{1}\right)\times\frac{2}{33}\\
=\frac{15}{2}-\left(\frac{5+6}{2}\right)\times \frac{2}{33}=\frac{15}{2}-\frac{11}{2}\times \frac{2}{33}=\frac{15}{2}-\frac{1}{3}\\
=\frac{45-2}{6}=\frac{43}{6}\)
= 7.1666 ≈ 7
