Question
![The mathematical expression shown in the image is:
\[
\frac{6 + 10}{7 - 5} + 37 - 53 = ?
\]
### Steps to Solve:
1. **Calculate the numerator and denominator of the fraction:**
- Numerator: \(6 + 10 = 16\)
- Denominator: \(7 - 5 = 2\)
2. **Divide the results:**
- \( \frac{16}{2} = 8\)
3. **Complete the equation:**
\[
8 + 37 - 53
\]
4. **Perform the addition and subtraction:**
- \(8 + 37 = 45\)
- \(45 - 53 = -8\)
So, the solution to the expression is \(-8\).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fe9163f72-9cb9-47ec-9932-aa32cb69a25b%2Fdb7c73b9-28a8-4c60-af04-e17b594c75fc%2Fegkg46q_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
