Solve 48-80/3+32/5

$$48- \frac{ 80 }{ 3 } + \frac{ 32 }{ 5 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{416}{15}\approx 27.733333333$$

Solution Steps

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

$$\frac{144}{3}-\frac{80}{3}+\frac{32}{5}$$

Since \frac{144}{3} and \frac{80}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{144-80}{3}+\frac{32}{5}$$

Subtract 80 from 144 to get 64.

$$\frac{64}{3}+\frac{32}{5}$$

Least common multiple of 3 and 5 is 15. Convert \frac{64}{3} and \frac{32}{5} to fractions with denominator 15.

$$\frac{320}{15}+\frac{96}{15}$$

Since \frac{320}{15} and \frac{96}{15} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{320+96}{15}$$

Add 320 and 96 to get 416.

$$\frac{416}{15}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {5} \cdot 13}{3 \cdot 5} = 27\frac{11}{15} = 27.733333333333334$$
