Solution
Given, = `3/4x - 2` and = x + 6
2 – `3/2` = `2 xx (12 + 6) - 3/2(3/4 xx 1 - 2)`
= `36 - 3/2((3 - 2 xx 4)/4)`
= `36 - 3/2((3 - 8)/4)`
= `36 - 3/2((-5)/4)`
= `36 + 15/8`
= `(36 xx 8 + 15)/8`
= `(288 + 15)/8`
= `303/8`

To find sum of three numbers 14, 27 and 13, we can have two ways:
- We may first add 14 and 27 to get 41 and then add 13 to it to get the total sum 54 or
- We may add 27 and 13 to get 40 and then add 14 to get the sum 54. Thus, (14 + 27) + 13 = 14 + (27 + 13)
