Solve (-33/5)-22/5

$$( - 3 \frac { 3 } { 5 } ) - 2 \frac { 2 } { 5 }$$

Evaluate

$$-6$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 3 and 5 to get 15.

$$-\frac{15+3}{5}-\frac{2\times 5+2}{5}$$

Add 15 and 3 to get 18.

$$-\frac{18}{5}-\frac{2\times 5+2}{5}$$

Multiply 2 and 5 to get 10.

$$-\frac{18}{5}-\frac{10+2}{5}$$

Add 10 and 2 to get 12.

$$-\frac{18}{5}-\frac{12}{5}$$

Since -\frac{18}{5} and \frac{12}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{-18-12}{5}$$

Subtract 12 from -18 to get -30.

$$\frac{-30}{5}$$

Divide -30 by 5 to get -6.

$$-6$$
