Solve 351/4*(1-2/3)

$$35 \frac { 1 } { 4 } \times ( 1 - \frac { 2 } { 3 } )$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{47}{4}=11.75$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 35 and 4 to get 140.

$$\frac{140+1}{4}\left(1-\frac{2}{3}\right)$$

Add 140 and 1 to get 141.

$$\frac{141}{4}\left(1-\frac{2}{3}\right)$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{3}{3}.

$$\frac{141}{4}\left(\frac{3}{3}-\frac{2}{3}\right)$$

Since \frac{3}{3} and \frac{2}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{141}{4}\times \frac{3-2}{3}$$

Subtract 2 from 3 to get 1.

$$\frac{141}{4}\times \frac{1}{3}$$

Multiply \frac{141}{4} times \frac{1}{3} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.

$$\frac{141\times 1}{4\times 3}$$

Do the multiplications in the fraction \frac{141\times 1}{4\times 3}.

$$\frac{141}{12}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{141}{12} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

$$\frac{47}{4}$$

Factor

$$\frac{47}{2 ^ {2}} = 11\frac{3}{4} = 11.75$$
