Solve 16-22/7-22/7

$$16 - \frac { 22 } { 7 } - \frac { 22 } { 7 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{68}{7}\approx 9.714285714$$

Solution Steps

Convert 16 to fraction \frac{112}{7}.

$$\frac{112}{7}-\frac{22}{7}-\frac{22}{7}$$

Since \frac{112}{7} and \frac{22}{7} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{112-22}{7}-\frac{22}{7}$$

Subtract 22 from 112 to get 90.

$$\frac{90}{7}-\frac{22}{7}$$

Since \frac{90}{7} and \frac{22}{7} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{90-22}{7}$$

Subtract 22 from 90 to get 68.

$$\frac{68}{7}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2} \cdot 17}{7} = 9\frac{5}{7} = 9.714285714285714$$
