\frac{28}{25}=\beta \left(\frac{12}{100}-\frac{4}{100}\right)+\frac{4}{100}
Reduce the fraction \frac{112}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.
\frac{28}{25}=\beta \left(\frac{3}{25}-\frac{4}{100}\right)+\frac{4}{100}
Reduce the fraction \frac{12}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.
\frac{28}{25}=\beta \left(\frac{3}{25}-\frac{1}{25}\right)+\frac{4}{100}
Reduce the fraction \frac{4}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.
\frac{28}{25}=\beta \times \frac{3-1}{25}+\frac{4}{100}
Since \frac{3}{25} and \frac{1}{25} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{28}{25}=\beta \times \frac{2}{25}+\frac{4}{100}
Subtract 1 from 3 to get 2.
\frac{28}{25}=\beta \times \frac{2}{25}+\frac{1}{25}
Reduce the fraction \frac{4}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.
\beta \times \frac{2}{25}+\frac{1}{25}=\frac{28}{25}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\beta \times \frac{2}{25}=\frac{28}{25}-\frac{1}{25}
Subtract \frac{1}{25} from both sides.
\beta \times \frac{2}{25}=\frac{28-1}{25}
Since \frac{28}{25} and \frac{1}{25} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\beta \times \frac{2}{25}=\frac{27}{25}
Subtract 1 from 28 to get 27.
\beta =\frac{27}{25}\times \frac{25}{2}
Multiply both sides by \frac{25}{2}, the reciprocal of \frac{2}{25}.
\beta =\frac{27\times 25}{25\times 2}
Multiply \frac{27}{25} times \frac{25}{2} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
\beta =\frac{27}{2}
Cancel out 25 in both numerator and denominator.
