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 #2: -3/5, -0.9, -1.9, -8/3 Of the number listed above, which number is the greatest?
A. -3/5
B. -0.9
C. -1.9
D. -8/3
Answer Explanation
To answer this question, we need to convert the numbers into a similar form. Converting decimal numbers into fraction is appropriate to finding the greatest number.
-0.9 becomes 9/10
-1.9 becomes 19/10
Now we find the LCM of the denominators of the four fractions. The LCM of 5, 10 and 3 is 30. Multiply each fraction with the LCM to compare the fractions.
-3/5*30=-18
-9/10*30=-27
-19/10*30=-57
-8/3*30=-24
The greatest number is -18, meaning -3/5 is the greatest number.
