Solve -1/5+3/2-03

$$- \frac { 1 } { 5 } + \frac { 3 } { 2 } - 03$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{13}{10}=1.3$$

Solution Steps

Least common multiple of 5 and 2 is 10. Convert -\frac{1}{5} and \frac{3}{2} to fractions with denominator 10.

$$-\frac{2}{10}+\frac{15}{10}-0\times 3$$

Since -\frac{2}{10} and \frac{15}{10} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{-2+15}{10}-0\times 3$$

Add -2 and 15 to get 13.

$$\frac{13}{10}-0\times 3$$

Multiply 0 and 3 to get 0.

$$\frac{13}{10}-0$$

Subtract 0 from \frac{13}{10} to get \frac{13}{10}.

$$\frac{13}{10}$$

Factor

$$\frac{13}{2 \cdot 5} = 1\frac{3}{10} = 1.3$$
