Solve +24/2-66/5

$$+2 \frac{ 4 }{ 2 } -6 \frac{ 6 }{ 5 }$$

Evaluate

$$-\frac{16}{5}=-3.2$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 2 and 2 to get 4.

$$\frac{4+4}{2}-\frac{6\times 5+6}{5}$$

Add 4 and 4 to get 8.

$$\frac{8}{2}-\frac{6\times 5+6}{5}$$

Divide 8 by 2 to get 4.

$$4-\frac{6\times 5+6}{5}$$

Multiply 6 and 5 to get 30.

$$4-\frac{30+6}{5}$$

Add 30 and 6 to get 36.

$$4-\frac{36}{5}$$

Convert 4 to fraction \frac{20}{5}.

$$\frac{20}{5}-\frac{36}{5}$$

Since \frac{20}{5} and \frac{36}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{20-36}{5}$$

Subtract 36 from 20 to get -16.

$$-\frac{16}{5}$$

Factor

$$-\frac{16}{5} = -3\frac{1}{5} = -3.2$$
