Simplify 1\(\frac{1}{2} + 2\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} – \frac{1}{2}\)
- -2\(\frac{1}{3}\)
- -2\(\frac{1}{4}\)
- 2\(\frac{1}{8}\)
-
2\(\frac{3}{4}\)
The correct answer is: D
Explanation
1\(\frac{1}{2} + 2\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} - \frac{1}{2}\)\(\frac{3}{2} + \frac{7}{3} \times \frac{3}{4} - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2} + \frac{7}{4} - \frac{1}{2}\)
= \(\frac{6 + 7 - 2}{4} = \frac{11}{4}\)
= 2\(\frac{3}{4}\)
