Solve 4-5/11-7/11

$$4 - \frac { 5 } { 11 } - \frac { 7 } { 11 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{32}{11}\approx 2.909090909$$

Solution Steps

Convert 4 to fraction \frac{44}{11}.

$$\frac{44}{11}-\frac{5}{11}-\frac{7}{11}$$

Since \frac{44}{11} and \frac{5}{11} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{44-5}{11}-\frac{7}{11}$$

Subtract 5 from 44 to get 39.

$$\frac{39}{11}-\frac{7}{11}$$

Since \frac{39}{11} and \frac{7}{11} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{39-7}{11}$$

Subtract 7 from 39 to get 32.

$$\frac{32}{11}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {5}}{11} = 2\frac{10}{11} = 2.909090909090909$$
