Step-3

Title: Determine the value of an expression

Grade: 6-b Lesson: S4-L3

Explanation: Hello Students, time to practice and review the steps for the problem.

Lesson Steps

Steps	Problem	Solution
1	Determine the value of an expression at b = 1/5 & p = 1/10	\$ b/p + b + p \$
2	Now substitute "\$b,p\$" values in the expression	\$ 1/5 + 1/10 + (1/5)(1/10) \$
3	After multplication we get	\$ 1/5 + 1/10 + 1/50 \$
4	Taking LCM as "50" we get	\$ (1\times10 + 1\times5 + 1)/50 \$
5	After simplification we get	\$ (10+5+1)/50 => \cancel(16)^8/\cancel(50)^25\$
6	After cancellation we get, we get	\$ 8/25 \$
7	Answer	B = \$ 8/25 \$

Steps

Problem

Solution

Determine the value of an expression at
b = 1/5 & p = 1/10

\$ b/p + b + p \$

Now substitute "\$b,p\$" values in the expression

\$ 1/5 + 1/10 + (1/5)(1/10) \$

After multplication we get

\$ 1/5 + 1/10 + 1/50 \$

Taking LCM as "50" we get

\$ (1\times10 + 1\times5 + 1)/50 \$

After simplification we get

\$ (10+5+1)/50 => \cancel(16)^8/\cancel(50)^25\$

After cancellation we get, we get

\$ 8/25 \$

Answer

B = \$ 8/25 \$
