5(3/40) + 7(2/50) - 8(1/20)
Calculation:
Convert mixed fractions to improper fractions
5(3/40) = (5 × 40 + 3)/40 = 203/40
7(2/50) = (7 × 50 + 2)/50 = 352/50
8(1/20) = (8 × 20 + 1)/20 = 161/20
Find LCM of denominators (40, 50, 20)
LCM(40, 50, 20) = 200
Convert fractions to have denominator 200
203/40 = (203 × 5)/200 = 1015/200
352/50 = (352 × 4)/200 = 1408/200
161/20 = (161 × 10)/200 = 1610/200
Perform the operations
(1015/200) + (1408/200) - (1610/200) = (1015 + 1408 - 1610)/200
⇒ 813/200
Convert to mixed fraction
⇒ 813/200 = 4(13/200)
Final Answer: 4(13/200)
