Question

Simplify:

$$
\left(5.6 - 2\frac{4}{5}\right) + \left(1\frac{3}{8} \div 0.55\right)
$$

Accepted Answer

Solution:
Given expression:
$$ \left(5.6 - 2\frac{4}{5}ight) + \left(1\frac{3}{8} \div 0.55ight) $$
First solve the first bracket:
$$ 2\frac{4}{5} = 2.8 $$
So,
$$ 5.6 - 2.8 = 2.8 $$
Now solve the second bracket:
$$ 1\frac{3}{8} = \frac{11}{8} $$
$$ \frac{11}{8} = 1.375 $$
So,
$$ 1.375 \div 0.55 $$
Convert decimals into fractions:
$$ 1.375 = \frac{1375}{1000} $$
$$ 0.55 = \frac{55}{100} $$
Therefore,
$$ 1.375 \div 0.55 = \frac{1375}{1000} \div \frac{55}{100} $$
Change division into multiplication:
$$ = \frac{1375}{1000} 	imes \frac{100}{55} $$
$$ = \frac{137500}{55000} $$
$$ = 2.5 $$
Now add both results:
$$ 2.8 + 2.5 = 5.3 $$
Therefore, the value of the expression is:
$$ \boxed{5.3} $$
Final Answer: **5.3**
