Solve -6+3/5-10/2=

$$- 6 + \frac { 3 } { 5 } - \frac { 10 } { 2 } =$$

Evaluate

$$-\frac{52}{5}=-10.4$$

Solution Steps

Convert -6 to fraction -\frac{30}{5}.

$$-\frac{30}{5}+\frac{3}{5}-\frac{10}{2}$$

Since -\frac{30}{5} and \frac{3}{5} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{-30+3}{5}-\frac{10}{2}$$

Add -30 and 3 to get -27.

$$-\frac{27}{5}-\frac{10}{2}$$

Divide 10 by 2 to get 5.

$$-\frac{27}{5}-5$$

Convert 5 to fraction \frac{25}{5}.

$$-\frac{27}{5}-\frac{25}{5}$$

Since -\frac{27}{5} and \frac{25}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{-27-25}{5}$$

Subtract 25 from -27 to get -52.

$$-\frac{52}{5}$$

Factor

$$-\frac{52}{5} = -10\frac{2}{5} = -10.4$$
