Question

Simplify: $2^o+3^{-1}+\frac{1}{5^{-1}}+2^{-1}$

Answer 1

We need to simplify $2^0+3^{-1}+\frac{1}{5^{-1}}+2^{-1}$

$2^0+3^{-1}+\frac{1}{5^{-1}}+2^{-1}=1+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{\frac{1}{5}}+\frac{1}{2}$

$=1+\frac{1}{3}+5+\frac{1}{2}$

$=6+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{2}$

$=\frac{36+2+3}{6}$

$=\frac{41}{6}$

$\therefore 2^0+3^{-1}+\frac{1}{5^{-1}}+2^{-1}=\frac{41}{6}$
