Solve 16-left(3*16-16*4/3right)

$$16- \left( 3 \cdot 16- \frac{ 16 \cdot 4 }{ 3 } \right)$$

Evaluate

$$-\frac{32}{3}\approx -10.666666667$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 3 and 16 to get 48.

$$16-\left(48-\frac{16\times 4}{3}\right)$$

Multiply 16 and 4 to get 64.

$$16-\left(48-\frac{64}{3}\right)$$

Convert 48 to fraction \frac{144}{3}.

$$16-\left(\frac{144}{3}-\frac{64}{3}\right)$$

Since \frac{144}{3} and \frac{64}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$16-\frac{144-64}{3}$$

Subtract 64 from 144 to get 80.

$$16-\frac{80}{3}$$

Convert 16 to fraction \frac{48}{3}.

$$\frac{48}{3}-\frac{80}{3}$$

Since \frac{48}{3} and \frac{80}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{48-80}{3}$$

Subtract 80 from 48 to get -32.

$$-\frac{32}{3}$$

Factor

$$-\frac{32}{3} = -10\frac{2}{3} = -10.666666666666666$$
