• 261.75
• 1408.75

Answer 1

To simplify the expression \( \frac{3}{4}(1440) + 295.25 + (-33.50) \):

1. Calculate \( \frac{3}{4}(1440) \): \[ \frac{3}{4} \times 1440 = 3 \times 360 = 1080 \]

2. Now add the other terms: \[ 1080 + 295.25 - 33.50 \]

3. First, add \( 1080 + 295.25 \): \[ 1080 + 295.25 = 1375.25 \]

4. Now, subtract \( 33.50 \): \[ 1375.25 - 33.50 = 1341.75 \]

Thus, the simplified expression gives us: \[ \boxed{1341.75} \]
