Identify common factor: Identify the common factor in each term of the expression, which is (34), except for the third term which has (31). We can factor out (34) from the first, second, and fourth terms.
Factor out common factor: Factor out (4)/(3) from the first, second, and fourth terms.((9)/(5)×(4)/(3))+((6)/(5)×(4)/(3))+((4)/(5)×(1)/(3))+((−2)/(5)×(4)/(3)) = (4)/(3)×[(9)/(5)+(6)/(5)−(2)/(5)]+(4)/(5)×(1)/(3)
Combine and simplify: Combine the terms inside the brackets and simplify the third term.(59+56−52)=513(54×31)=154
Substitute simplified terms: Substitute the simplified terms back into the expression.=34×513+154
Multiply fractions: Multiply (34) by (513).=(3×54×13)=(1552)
Add fractions: Add (1552) and (154) together.=(1552)+(154)=(1556)
Simplify final fraction: Simplify the fraction(56)/(15) if possible.=(56)/(15) cannot be simplified further as 56 and 15 have no common factors other than 1.
