To simplify the expression, we first need to find the result of the operations within the parentheses:
7/8 + 3/4 = 7/8 + 6/8 = 13/8
Now we can substitute this result back into the original expression:
9(13/8) - 1 - (5/6 25/48)
To simplify this further:
9*(13/8) = 117/8
Now our expression becomes:
117/8 - 1 - (5/6*25/48)
To simplify the remaining operations:
117/8 - 1 = 117/8 - 8/8 = 109/8
Now we have:
109/8 - 5/6 * 25/48
To multiply the fractions:
5/6 * 25/48 = 125/288
So now our expression becomes:
109/8 - 125/288
To subtract the fractions:
109/8 - 125/288 = 2919/288 - 125/288 = 2794/288
Finally, we can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor of 2:
2794 ÷ 2 = 1397288 ÷ 2 = 144
Therefore, the final result of the expression is:
1397/144 or approximately 9.7014.
