Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's simplify the expression using BODMAS rules step by step. Note that the standard question notation indicates operations inside brackets and vinculums.
The given text is: 2 of 5
2
1
−[4÷2−
3

)}]
First, evaluate the innermost round bracket:
5−
2
1
−
4
3
=
4
20−2−3
=
4
15
Next, evaluate the curly braces:
{
4
3
−
4
15
}=−
4
12
=−3
Now substitute this back into the square bracket:
[4÷2−
3
1
−(−3)]=[2−
3
1
+3]=[5−
3
1
]=
3
14
Now process the "of" operation outside:
2 of 5
2
1
=2×

11
=11
Finally, perform the subtraction:
11−

14
=
3
33−14
=
