To simplify accurately, it is essential to follow the order of operations, often remembered as PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We begin by identifying all operations involved. The expression includes multiplication and addition. According to the rules of arithmetic, multiplication takes precedence over addition, so we perform those calculations first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, convert the mixed number 7127\\frac{1}{2}721\u200b into an improper fraction. This is done by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and then adding the numerator. 7\u00d72+1=157 \\times 2 + 1 = 157\u00d72+1=15, so 712=1527\\frac{1}{2} = \\frac{15}{2}721\u200b=215\u200b. Now we multiply 49\\frac{4}{9}94\u200b by 152\\frac{15}{2}215\u200b. Multiplying the numerators and denominators gives us 6018\\frac{60}{18}1860\u200b, which simplifies to 103\\frac{10}{3}310\u200b.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we handle 994849\u00d7245\\frac{9948}{49} \\times 245499948\u200b\u00d7245. Here, recognizing that 245 is divisible by 49 makes the calculation simpler. Since 245=5\u00d749245 = 5 \\times 49245=5\u00d749, the multiplication simplifies: 994849\u00d75\u00d749\\frac{9948}{49} \\times 5 \\times 49499948\u200b\u00d75\u00d749. The 49s cancel out, leaving 9948\u00d75=497409948 \\times 5 = 497409948\u00d75=49740.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now add all the parts: 23+103=123=4\\frac{2}{3} + \\frac{10}{3} = \\frac{12}{3} = 432\u200b+310\u200b=312\u200b=4. Adding this to 49740 gives the final result:4+49740=497444 + 49740 = \\boxed{49744}4+49740=49744\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This process emphasizes the importance of simplifying step by step, recognizing number patterns, and respecting the proper order of operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"722\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner10-327.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-35567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner10-327.jpeg 722w, https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner10-327-212x300.jpeg 212w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 722px) 100vw, 722px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simplify: 2\/3 + 4\/9 x 7 \u00bd + 9948\/49 x 245.
