💡 Analysis & Explanation
BODMAS Application ▼
To solve the expression (50 + 0.5 * 20) / 0.7, we must first execute the operation inside the parenthesis.
Inner Calculation ▼
Inside the bracket, multiplication takes precedence over addition. 0.5 * 20 = 10. Then add 50 to get 50 + 10 = 60.
Division Step ▼
Now divide the result by 0.7, which is equivalent to 60 / (7/10) or (60 * 10) / 7 = 600 / 7.
Final Value ▼
600 divided by 7 is approximately 85.714...
Conclusion ▼
85.71 is the correct mathematical answer.
