Solve 67/10-44/10=

$$6 \frac { 7 } { 10 } - 4 \frac { 4 } { 10 } =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{23}{10}=2.3$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 6 and 10 to get 60.

$$\frac{60+7}{10}-\frac{4\times 10+4}{10}$$

Add 60 and 7 to get 67.

$$\frac{67}{10}-\frac{4\times 10+4}{10}$$

Multiply 4 and 10 to get 40.

$$\frac{67}{10}-\frac{40+4}{10}$$

Add 40 and 4 to get 44.

$$\frac{67}{10}-\frac{44}{10}$$

Since \frac{67}{10} and \frac{44}{10} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{67-44}{10}$$

Subtract 44 from 67 to get 23.

$$\frac{23}{10}$$

Factor

$$\frac{23}{2 \cdot 5} = 2\frac{3}{10} = 2.3$$
