Using BODMAS
Division first
3-2÷2/5 + 1/2
=3-2×5/2 + 1/2
=3-5+ 1/2
LCM IS 2
=(6-10+1)÷2
=-3/2

3 - 2 divided by 2/5 + 1/2.
Simply use BODMAS.
Division comes first. Hence, 3 - (2 divided by 2/5) + 1/2
2 divided by 2/5 = 5
So now, it becomes 3 - 5 + 1/2.
using BODMAS again
Addition comes first. Hence (3 + 1/2) - 5
(3 + 1/2) = 7/2.
So now, we can solve 7/2 - 5
which results in -3/2, which is option B

I think the answer is -1/2
