31+(2−1)=
To solve the expression 31+(2−1), we need to follow the order of operations, often abbreviated as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)). This problem primarily involves parentheses and addition.
We'll start by solving the expression within the parentheses:
- The expression inside the parentheses is (2−1). Subtracting, we get:
2−1=1
After solving the parentheses, the expression becomes:
31+1
Next, we perform the addition:
- Since 1 can be written as 33 to have a common denominator with 31, we add:
31+33=31+3=34
The fraction 34 can also be expressed as a mixed number:
- 34=131 (where 1 is the whole number and 31 is the fractional part)
Thus, the correct answer is 131.
