Solve -421.6div4+5(-2)-(-16)=

$$- 421.6 \div 4 + 5 ( - 2 ) - ( - 16 ) =$$

Evaluate

$$-99.4$$

Solution Steps

Expand \frac{-421.6}{4} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$\frac{-4216}{40}+5\left(-2\right)-\left(-16\right)$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-4216}{40} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 8.

$$-\frac{527}{5}+5\left(-2\right)-\left(-16\right)$$

Multiply 5 and -2 to get -10.

$$-\frac{527}{5}-10-\left(-16\right)$$

Convert 10 to fraction \frac{50}{5}.

$$-\frac{527}{5}-\frac{50}{5}-\left(-16\right)$$

Since -\frac{527}{5} and \frac{50}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{-527-50}{5}-\left(-16\right)$$

Subtract 50 from -527 to get -577.

$$-\frac{577}{5}-\left(-16\right)$$

The opposite of -16 is 16.

$$-\frac{577}{5}+16$$

Convert 16 to fraction \frac{80}{5}.

$$-\frac{577}{5}+\frac{80}{5}$$

Since -\frac{577}{5} and \frac{80}{5} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{-577+80}{5}$$

Add -577 and 80 to get -497.

$$-\frac{497}{5}$$

Factor

$$-99.4$$
