Answer:
[C} [tex]\left(3\frac{1}{4}+2\frac{1}{2}+1\right)+\left(3\frac{1}{4}+2\frac{1}{2}+1\right)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
this week you practice your instrument for 3 1/4 on Monday, 2 1/2 hours on Tuesday and 1 hour on Wednesday.
Next week you practice for the same number of hours.
To Find:
What is the total number of hours you will have practiced over these six days?
Which expression correctly shows how to solve this problem
Solve:
Knowing that you practice for 3 1/4 on Monday, 2 1/2 hours on Tuesday and 1 hour on Wednesday. Next week you practice the same. Thus, we can know that [C} [tex]\left(3\frac{1}{4}+2\frac{1}{2}+1\right)+\left(3\frac{1}{4}+2\frac{1}{2}+1\right)[/tex] is the correct answer.
Solution if needed.
[tex]\left(3\frac{1}{4}+2\frac{1}{2}+1\right)+\left(3\frac{1}{4}+2\frac{1}{2}+1\right)[/tex]
[tex]=\left(\frac{13}{4}+\frac{5}{2}+1\right)+\left(3\frac{1}{4}+2\frac{1}{2}+1\right)[/tex]
= [tex]\left(\frac{13}{4}+\frac{5}{2}+1\right)+\left(\frac{13}{4}+2\frac{1}{2}+1\right)[/tex]
[tex]=\left(\frac{13}{4}+\frac{5}{2}+1\right)+\left(\frac{13}{4}+\frac{5}{2}+1\right)[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{Follow\:the\:PEMDAS\:order\:of\:operations}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{27}{4}+\left(\frac{13}{4}+\frac{5}{2}+1\right)[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{27}{4}+\frac{27}{4}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{27}{2}[/tex]
[tex]=13\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Solution ⇒ [tex]=13\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
