Solve: 10 - (4/2 + 3/2) Order of Operations with Fractions

To solve this problem, we’ll follow these steps:

• Step 1: Evaluate the expression inside the parentheses.
• Step 2: Subtract the result from 10.

Now, let's work through each step:
Step 1: Inside the parentheses, we have $\frac{4}{2} + \frac{3}{2}$. First, simplify $\frac{4}{2}$ to 2 and $\frac{3}{2}$ remains as $\frac{3}{2}$.
The sum is $2 + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{4}{2} + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{7}{2}$.
Step 2: Now, subtract $\frac{7}{2}$ from 10.
Express 10 as a fraction: $\frac{20}{2} - \frac{7}{2} = \frac{13}{2}$.
Convert the fraction back to a mixed number: $\frac{13}{2} = 6\frac{1}{2}$.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $6\frac{1}{2}$.
