Solve xdiv4*ydiv6-4=

$$x \div 4 \times y \div 6 - 4 =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{xy}{24}-4$$

Short Solution Steps

Express \frac{x}{4}y as a single fraction.

$$\frac{\frac{xy}{4}}{6}-4$$

Express \frac{\frac{xy}{4}}{6} as a single fraction.

$$\frac{xy}{4\times 6}-4$$

Multiply 4 and 6 to get 24.

$$\frac{xy}{24}-4$$

To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply 4 times \frac{24}{24}.

$$\frac{xy}{24}-\frac{4\times 24}{24}$$

Since \frac{xy}{24} and \frac{4\times 24}{24} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{xy-4\times 24}{24}$$

Do the multiplications in xy-4\times 24.

$$\frac{xy-96}{24}$$

Factor
