Solve 6/2-10/5+20/60-4/4

$$\frac { 6 } { 2 } - \frac { 10 } { 5 } + \frac { 20 } { 60 } - \frac { 4 } { 4 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{1}{3}\approx 0.333333333$$

Solution Steps

Divide 4 by 4 to get 1.

$$\frac{6}{2}-\frac{10}{5}+\frac{20}{60}-1$$

Divide 6 by 2 to get 3.

$$3-\frac{10}{5}+\frac{20}{60}-1$$

Divide 10 by 5 to get 2.

$$3-2+\frac{20}{60}-1$$

Subtract 2 from 3 to get 1.

$$1+\frac{20}{60}-1$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{20}{60} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 20.

$$1+\frac{1}{3}-1$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{3}{3}.

$$\frac{3}{3}+\frac{1}{3}-1$$

Since \frac{3}{3} and \frac{1}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{3+1}{3}-1$$

Add 3 and 1 to get 4.

$$\frac{4}{3}-1$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{3}{3}.

$$\frac{4}{3}-\frac{3}{3}$$

Since \frac{4}{3} and \frac{3}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{4-3}{3}$$

Subtract 3 from 4 to get 1.

$$\frac{1}{3}$$

Factor

$$\frac{1}{3} = 0.3333333333333333$$
