Question

Evaluate the expression. (10-1)/27 With a small two at the top of the 10 minus1 would the answer be 2/3 or three or nine or 27

Answer 1

(10^2 -1) /27 = 99/27 = 33/9 =11/3
or
(10-1)^2 / 27 = 81 / 27 = 3

Your typing is very hard to figure out.

Answer 2

I am not sure what the student means. It might be 3

Answer 3

but how about (10-1)^2 / 27 ????
at least that results in an answer on the list.

Answer 4

I guess guessing what on earth the student means is not part of botism.

Answer 5

The expression can be evaluated as follows:

(10 - 1)/27 = 9/27 = 1/3

So, the answer is 1/3.

Answer 6

Apologies for the confusion caused by the typing error. Let's clarify the correct evaluation of the expression.

The expression (10^2 - 1) / 27 can be simplified as:

(10^2 - 1) / 27 = (100 - 1) / 27 = 99 / 27

Now, we can simplify 99/27:

99 / 27 = 11/3

So, the correct answer is 11/3.

Answer 7

Apologies for the confusion. If the student meant (10-1)/27, then the expression can be evaluated as:

(10 - 1)/27 = 9/27 = 1/3

So, the answer would be 1/3.

Answer 8

Apologies for misunderstanding your previous message. You're correct. Let's evaluate the expression (10 - 1)^2 / 27:

(10 - 1)^2 / 27 = 9^2 / 27 = 81 / 27 = 3

So, the answer would be 3.
