To simplify the expression 12 8/15 - 7 + 715 + 15, we first convert the mixed number 12 8/15 to an improper fraction.
The improper fraction equivalent of 12 8/15 is:
12 8/15 = (12 * 15 + 8)/15 = 188/15.
Now we can simplify the expression by combining like terms:
188/15 - 7 + 715 + 15 = 188/15 + 715 - 7 + 15
Next, we need to find a common denominator (LCD) for 15 and 1:
LCD(15, 1) = 15
Now we can rewrite each term with the LCD:
(188/15)*1 + (715/1)*(15/15) - (7/1)*(15/15) + (15/1)*(15/15)
Simplifying further:
188/15 + 715*(15/15) - 7*(15/15) + 15*(15/15)
188/15 + (715/1) - (7/1) + (15/1)
To add and subtract fractions, they must have a common denominator, which in this case is 15:
(188 + 715 - 7 + 15)/15
Now simplifying the numerator:
188 + 715 - 7 + 15 = 911
Therefore, the simplified answer is:
911/15
