Solve 24-22/5-31/5

$$24 - 2 \frac { 2 } { 5 } - 3 \frac { 1 } { 5 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{92}{5}=18.4$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 2 and 5 to get 10.

$$24-\frac{10+2}{5}-\frac{3\times 5+1}{5}$$

Add 10 and 2 to get 12.

$$24-\frac{12}{5}-\frac{3\times 5+1}{5}$$

Convert 24 to fraction \frac{120}{5}.

$$\frac{120}{5}-\frac{12}{5}-\frac{3\times 5+1}{5}$$

Since \frac{120}{5} and \frac{12}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{120-12}{5}-\frac{3\times 5+1}{5}$$

Subtract 12 from 120 to get 108.

$$\frac{108}{5}-\frac{3\times 5+1}{5}$$

Multiply 3 and 5 to get 15.

$$\frac{108}{5}-\frac{15+1}{5}$$

Add 15 and 1 to get 16.

$$\frac{108}{5}-\frac{16}{5}$$

Since \frac{108}{5} and \frac{16}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{108-16}{5}$$

Subtract 16 from 108 to get 92.

$$\frac{92}{5}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2} \cdot 23}{5} = 18\frac{2}{5} = 18.4$$
