Which phrase represents the algebraic expression 1/4 d+7

The given equation is confusing since it written straight without any symbols or parenthesis. I can write the equation in two forms:

(1 / 4) d + 7                         ---> 1

and

(1 / 4 d) + 7                         ---> 2

For equation 1, the variable d is first multiplied by 1 / 4 before adding up with the number 7. So in this case, the correct phrase would be something like:

“The sum of one fourth a number and seven”

For equation 2, this is more complicated since the variable is on the denominator side. The number 1 is divided by the product of 4 and variable d then summed up with the number 7. The correct phrase for this one would be something like:

“The sum of the quotient of one over four times a number and seven”

Select which equation is the correct one.

3 1/3 x 2 3/5 = 8 2/3

step-by-step explanation:

just multiply the first number by the second number to get your answer.
