Hey there :)


( (1)/(2)+ (5)/(3) -1 )/( (3)/(4) )
↓ Is the same as

(1)/(2) + (5)/(3) -1 ÷
(3)/(4)

Since it is a division by fraction, we can multiply by what is called the reciprocal
( The attached picture might help you )
(
(1)/(2) + (5)/(3) - 1 ) ×
(4)/(3)
↓ For this part, we need the common denominator, which is 6

(1(3))/(2(3))+ (5(2))/(32)) (1(6))/(1(6)) ×
(4)/(3)


(3)/(6)+ (10)/(6) - (6)/(6) ×
(4)/(3)

(7)/(6) ×
(4)/(3)

(14)/(9) = 1(5)/(9)

Your final answer
1/2 + 5/3 - 1 ------------------ 3/4-example-1
