Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate:

-[-1⅘ ÷ 0.3(1.2)] - 5/6

⇛-[- 20/5 ÷ 0.3(1.2)]-5/6

⇛- [-20/5 ÷ 0.36] - 5/6

⇛-[-20/5 ÷ 36/100] - 5/6

Here I have changed in expression decimal point into fraction by putting 100 in Denominator.

⇛-[-20/5 × 100/36] - 5/6

⇛-[(-20 × 100)/(5×36)] - 5/6

⇛-[-2000/180]-5/6

Remember (-) × (-) = +.

⇛2000/180 - 5/6

Now, LCM of the denominator 6 and 180 is 180.

⇛(2000 - 150)/180

⇛1850/180

Now, reduce the fraction by extracting and cancaling out by 2.

⇛825/80

Again reduce the fraction by extracting and cancaling out by 5.

⇛165/16 Ans.

Hope this helps!!
