Use the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing to solve: (−3)÷(34)×(27)×(−516)÷(57)

Answer 1

To solve this expression, we can start by multiplying and dividing from left to right, following the order of operations.

First, we can multiply:

(-3) ÷ (34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57) = (-3/34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57)

Next, we can divide:

(-3/34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57) = (-3/34) × (27) × (-516/57)

Now, let's simplify each part:

(-3/34) × (27) × (-516/57) = (-3 × 27 × -516) / (34 × 57)

(-3 × 27 × -516) = 41,868

(34 × 57) = 1938

Finally, we can divide:

41,868 / 1938 = 21.6

Therefore, (-3) ÷ (34) × (27) × (-516) ÷ (57) equals 21.6.
