Solve 24-9*45div8+3

$$24 - 9 \times 45 \div 8 + 3$$

Evaluate

$$-\frac{189}{8}=-23.625$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 9 and 45 to get 405.

$$24-\frac{405}{8}+3$$

Convert 24 to fraction \frac{192}{8}.

$$\frac{192}{8}-\frac{405}{8}+3$$

Since \frac{192}{8} and \frac{405}{8} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{192-405}{8}+3$$

Subtract 405 from 192 to get -213.

$$-\frac{213}{8}+3$$

Convert 3 to fraction \frac{24}{8}.

$$-\frac{213}{8}+\frac{24}{8}$$

Since -\frac{213}{8} and \frac{24}{8} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{-213+24}{8}$$

Add -213 and 24 to get -189.

$$-\frac{189}{8}$$

Factor

$$-\frac{189}{8} = -23\frac{5}{8} = -23.625$$
