Answer:
zero (0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Order of operations rules require that we do the work inside parentheses first:
2 5/6 - (4 1/3 - 3/2)
The LCD of 13 and 3/2 is 6.
2 5/6 - (4 1/3 - 3/2) becomes 2 5/6 - (4 2/6 - 9/6), or
2 5/6 - (26/6 - 9/6), or
2 5/6 - (17/6)
Rewriting 2 5/6 as 17/6, we get:
17/6 - 17/6 = 0
This expression evaluates as zero (0).
