Understand the problem

20−57+3= \frac{20-5}{7+3}=

2

Step-by-step solution

Let's write the exercise in a different form:

(20−5):(7+3)= (20-5):(7+3)=

According to the order of operations in arithmetic, we'll first solve the expressions in parentheses:

20−5=15 20-5=15

7+3=10 7+3=10

Now we'll get the exercise:

15:10= 15:10=

Let's write the exercise as a fraction:

1510 \frac{15}{10}

Let's reduce the numerator and denominator by 10:

1.51=1.5=112 \frac{1.5}{1}=1.5=1\frac{1}{2}
