Short Answer

Expert verified

Value of $1.6 (0.7 + 3.3) \div 2.5$ is $2.56$

Step by step solution

- Order for simplification

To evaluate any expression involving more than one operation, follow the below order of operations:

First evaluate expressions inside grouping symbols like parentheses ( ) or brackets [ ].
Evaluate the exponents.
Perform Multiplication and division from left to right.
Perform addition and subtraction from left to right.

- Simplify expression inside grouping symbol

To evaluate the value of the given expression, first simplify the expression inside the parenthesis and then simplify further as shown below

$\begin{matrix} 1.6 (0.7 + 3.3) \div 2.5 = 1.6 (4) \div 2.5 \\ = 6.4 \div 2.5 \end{matrix}$

- Divide 6.4 by 2.5

Now, to simplify further divide the numbers to get

$6.4 \div 2.5 = 2.56$

Thus, value of $1.6 (0.7 + 3.3) \div 2.5$ is $$ 2.56 $$
