Solve 6+16*2/9-36*2/9

$$6 + 16 \times \frac { 2 } { 9 } - 36 \times \frac { 2 } { 9 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{14}{9}\approx 1.555555556$$

Solution Steps

Express 16\times \frac{2}{9} as a single fraction.

$$6+\frac{16\times 2}{9}-36\times \frac{2}{9}$$

Multiply 16 and 2 to get 32.

$$6+\frac{32}{9}-36\times \frac{2}{9}$$

Convert 6 to fraction \frac{54}{9}.

$$\frac{54}{9}+\frac{32}{9}-36\times \frac{2}{9}$$

Since \frac{54}{9} and \frac{32}{9} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{54+32}{9}-36\times \frac{2}{9}$$

Add 54 and 32 to get 86.

$$\frac{86}{9}-36\times \frac{2}{9}$$

Express 36\times \frac{2}{9} as a single fraction.

$$\frac{86}{9}-\frac{36\times 2}{9}$$

Multiply 36 and 2 to get 72.

$$\frac{86}{9}-\frac{72}{9}$$

Since \frac{86}{9} and \frac{72}{9} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{86-72}{9}$$

Subtract 72 from 86 to get 14.

$$\frac{14}{9}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 \cdot 7}{3 ^ {2}} = 1\frac{5}{9} = 1.5555555555555556$$
