Fraction Expression 28Bffd
1. **State the problem:** Calculate the value of the expression $\frac{2}{5} + \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{17}{19} \div 6 \div 5$ step by step.
2. **Recall the order of operations:** Multiplication and division are performed before addition, from left to right.
3. **Rewrite the expression:**
$$\frac{2}{5} + \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{17}{19} \div 6 \div 5$$
4. **Calculate the multiplication and divisions first:**
- Multiply $\frac{7}{8}$ and $\frac{17}{19}$:
$$\frac{7}{8} \times \frac{17}{19} = \frac{7 \times 17}{8 \times 19} = \frac{119}{152}$$
- Divide by 6:
$$\frac{119}{152} \div 6 = \frac{119}{152} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{119}{912}$$
- Divide by 5:
$$\frac{119}{912} \div 5 = \frac{119}{912} \times \frac{1}{5} = \frac{119}{4560}$$
5. **Now add $\frac{2}{5}$ and $\frac{119}{4560}$:**
- Find common denominator:
$$5 = \frac{4560}{912} \Rightarrow \text{common denominator} = 4560$$
- Convert $\frac{2}{5}$ to denominator 4560:
$$\frac{2}{5} = \frac{2 \times 912}{5 \times 912} = \frac{1824}{4560}$$
- Add the fractions:
$$\frac{1824}{4560} + \frac{119}{4560} = \frac{1824 + 119}{4560} = \frac{1943}{4560}$$
6. **Simplify the fraction if possible:**
- Check for common factors between 1943 and 4560. Since 1943 is prime relative to 4560, fraction is in simplest form.
**Final answer:**
$$\frac{1943}{4560}$$
