Solve y=40/180-40+4

$$y = \frac { 40 } { 180 } - 40 + 4$$

Solve for y

$$y = -\frac{322}{9} = -35\frac{7}{9} \approx -35.777777778$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Reduce the fraction \frac{40}{180} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 20.

$$y=\frac{2}{9}-40+4$$

Convert 40 to fraction \frac{360}{9}.

$$y=\frac{2}{9}-\frac{360}{9}+4$$

Since \frac{2}{9} and \frac{360}{9} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$y=\frac{2-360}{9}+4$$

Subtract 360 from 2 to get -358.

$$y=-\frac{358}{9}+4$$

Convert 4 to fraction \frac{36}{9}.

$$y=-\frac{358}{9}+\frac{36}{9}$$

Since -\frac{358}{9} and \frac{36}{9} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$y=\frac{-358+36}{9}$$

Add -358 and 36 to get -322.

$$y=-\frac{322}{9}$$

Assign y

$$y≔-\frac{322}{9}$$
