Calculated Answer

45

Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + n₂ / (n₁ / 60).

• n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + n₂ / (n₁ / 60)

• Evaluate n₁ / 60 = 0.13333333333333

  n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + n₂ / 0.13333333333333

• Evaluate n₂ / 0.13333333333333 = 33

  n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + 33

• Evaluate n₀ + 33 = 36

  n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + 36

• Evaluate n₀ + 36 = 39

  n₀ + n₀ + 39

• Evaluate n₀ + 39 = 42

  n₀ + 42

• Evaluate n₀ + 42 = 45

  45
• The answer to the problem and the result of n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + n₀ + n₂ / (n₁ / 60) is 45
