Simplify the fractions: 1/2 + 1/4 - 1/8.
Option B
Make denominators equal (LCM is 8). 4/8 + 2/8 - 1/8 = (4 + 2 - 1)/8 = 5/8.

Make denominators equal (LCM is 8). 4/8 + 2/8 - 1/8 = (4 + 2 - 1)/8 = 5/8.
Solve bracket: 18 - 6 = 12. Then division: 12 / 4 = 3. Finally addition: 3 + 7 = 10.
Division first: 2 / 10 = 0.2 (or do 50/10*2). Let's process left to right for mult/div: (50 * 2) / 10 = 100 / 10 = 10. Then 10 + 5 = 15.
Division: 6 / 2 = 3. Multiplication: 4 * 3 = 12. Equation becomes 8 + 12 - 3 = 20 - 3 = 17.
Bracket first: 12 - 2 = 10. Then division: 60 / 10 = 6. Finally multiplication: 6 * 3 = 18.
Perform division and multiplication: 24 / 8 = 3 and 3 * 4 = 12. Add the results: 3 + 12 = 15.
Division first: 50 / 5 = 10. Multiplication next: 10 * 2 = 20. Subtraction last: 100 - 20 = 80.
Solve the bracket first: 14 + 6 = 20. Then division: 20 / 4 = 5. Finally multiplication: 5 * 2 = 10.
Follow BODMAS: Division first (36 / 6 = 6). Then multiplication (6 * 2 = 12). Then addition (12 + 8 = 20).
By BODMAS rule, first do division: 20 / 4 = 5. Then multiplication: 12 * 5 = 60. Finally, subtraction: 60 - 5 = 55.
