$$( \frac { 3 } { 3 } - \frac { 5 } { 11 } ) \times 33 - 73$$

Evaluate

$$-55$$

Solution Steps

Divide 3 by 3 to get 1.

$$\left(1-\frac{5}{11}\right)\times 33-73$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{11}{11}.

$$\left(\frac{11}{11}-\frac{5}{11}\right)\times 33-73$$

Since \frac{11}{11} and \frac{5}{11} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{11-5}{11}\times 33-73$$

Subtract 5 from 11 to get 6.

$$\frac{6}{11}\times 33-73$$

Express \frac{6}{11}\times 33 as a single fraction.

$$\frac{6\times 33}{11}-73$$

Multiply 6 and 33 to get 198.

$$\frac{198}{11}-73$$

Divide 198 by 11 to get 18.

$$18-73$$

Subtract 73 from 18 to get -55.
