Solve 3/-0,12-3/5*(-0,12)

$$\frac { 3 } { - 0,12 } - \frac { 3 } { 5 \cdot ( - 0,12 ) }$$

Evaluate

$$-20$$

Solution Steps

Expand \frac{3}{-0,12} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$\frac{300}{-12}-\frac{3}{5\left(-0,12\right)}$$

Divide 300 by -12 to get -25.

$$-25-\frac{3}{5\left(-0,12\right)}$$

Multiply 5 and -0,12 to get -0,6.

$$-25-\frac{3}{-0,6}$$

Expand \frac{3}{-0,6} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$-25-\frac{30}{-6}$$

Divide 30 by -6 to get -5.

$$-25-\left(-5\right)$$

The opposite of -5 is 5.

$$-25+5$$

Add -25 and 5 to get -20.

$$-20$$

Factor

$$-20$$
