187/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

(7 + 1/4) 2^2 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3

2^2 = 4:

(7 + 1/4) 4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3

Put 7 + 1/4 over the common denominator 4. 7 + 1/4 = (4×7)/4 + 1/4:

(4×7)/4 + 1/4 4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3

4×7 = 28:

(28/4 + 1/4) 4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3

28/4 + 1/4 = (28 + 1)/4:

(28 + 1)/4×4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3

28 + 1 = 29:

29/4×4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3

29/4×4 = (29×4)/4:

(29×4)/4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3

(29×4)/4 = 4/4×29 = 29:

29 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3

Put 8 + 1/2 - 2 over the common denominator 2. 8 + 1/2 - 2 = (2×8)/2 + 1/2 + (2 (-2))/2:

29 + ((2×8)/2 + 1/2 + (2 (-2))/2)/3

2×8 = 16:

29 + (16/2 + 1/2 + (2 (-2))/2)/3

2 (-2) = -4:

29 + (16/2 + 1/2 + (-4)/2)/3

16/2 + 1/2 - 4/2 = (16 + 1 - 4)/2:

29 + ((16 + 1 - 4)/2)/3

16 + 1 = 17:

29 + ((17 - 4)/2)/3

29 + (13/2)/3

13/2×1/3 = 13/(2×3):

29 + 13/(2×3)

2×3 = 6:

29 + 13/6

Put 29 + 13/6 over the common denominator 6. 29 + 13/6 = (6×29)/6 + 13/6:

(6×29)/6 + 13/6

6×29 = 174:

174/6 + 13/6

174/6 + 13/6 = (174 + 13)/6:

(174 + 13)/6

Step-by-step explanation:

7 1/4 × 2²+(8 1/2-2)÷3

Using PEMDAS

Parentheses first

7 1/4 × 2²+(6 1/2)÷3

Then exponents

7 1/4 × 4+(6 1/2)÷3

Changing the mixed numbers to improper fractions

7 1/4 = (4*7+1)/4 = 29/4  and ( 2*6+1)/3 = 13/2

29/4 × 4+(13/2)÷3

Multiply and divide from left to right

29 + 13/2÷3

Using copy dot flip

29 + 13/2 * 1/3

29 + 13/6

Changing back to a mixed number

13/6 = 12/6 + 1/6 = 2 1/6

29 + 2 1/6

Add

31 1/6

the answer is c hope it
