Q #1: Simplify the expression above. Which of the following is correct?
A. 6
B. 18
C. 9
D. 22
Answer Explanation
To simplify this expression, we follow the order of operations as follows:
First, we start with the numerator and solve it as follows
[2(6+3*9)]
We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 3 * 9 = 27. The expression becomes
[2(6+27)]
Then, we carry out the addition of 6+27=33. Then, the expression yields
[2(33)]=2*33=66
Now, we solve for denominator, which is 6/2=3.
Thus, the expression is reduced into
The expression reduces into 22.

Q #3: Which of the following values is the greatest?
A. 25/2
B. 12.35
C. 40/3
D. 11.46
Answer Explanation
To find the greatest number from the given set, we first convert the decimal numbers into fractions.
12.35 becomes 1235/100
11.46 becomes 1146/10
Then, the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions of 2, 100, 3 and 10 is 300. Now we multiply each fraction with 300, which we will use to compare the give set.
25/2*300=3750
1235/100*300=3705
40/3*300=4000
1146/10*300=3438
From the calculated values, 4000 is the greatest value. Then, 40/3 is the greatest value.
