Question

$$5+3\times2-1\div2+8$$

Evaluate

$\frac{37}{2}=18.5$

Solution Steps

Multiply $3$ and $2$ to get $6$.

$$5+6-\frac{1}{2}+8$$

Add $5$ and $6$ to get $11$.

$$11-\frac{1}{2}+8$$

Convert $11$ to fraction $\frac{22}{2}$.

$$\frac{22}{2}-\frac{1}{2}+8$$

Since $\frac{22}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{22-1}{2}+8$$

Subtract $1$ from $22$ to get $21$.

$$\frac{21}{2}+8$$

Convert $8$ to fraction $\frac{16}{2}$.

$$\frac{21}{2}+\frac{16}{2}$$

Since $\frac{21}{2}$ and $\frac{16}{2}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{21+16}{2}$$

Add $21$ and $16$ to get $37$.

$$\frac{37}{2}$$

Factor

$\frac{37}{2} = 18\frac{1}{2} = 18.5$
