Step 1 :
1.1 10 = 2•5
(10)-3 = (2•5)(-3) = (2)(-3) • (5)(-3)
Equation at the end of step 1 :
75 58
(——•(10-3))+(——•((2)(-3)•(5)(-3)))
10 10
Step 2 :
29
Simplify ——
5
Equation at the end of step 2 :
75 29
(—— • (10-3)) + (—— • ((2)(-3)•(5)(-3)))
10 5
Step 3 :
Raising to a Power :
3.1 51 multiplied by 53 = 5(1 + 3) = 54
Equation at the end of step 3 :
75 29
(—— • (10-3)) + ————
10 5000
Step 4 :
4.1 10 = 2•5
(10)-3 = (2•5)(-3) = (2)(-3) • (5)(-3)
Equation at the end of step 4 :
75 29
(—— • ((2)(-3)•(5)(-3))) + ————
10 5000
Step 5 :
15
Simplify ——
2
Equation at the end of step 5 :
15 29
(—— • ((2)(-3)•(5)(-3))) + ————
2 5000
Step 6 :
Multiplying exponents :
6.1 21 multiplied by 23 = 2(1 + 3) = 24
Dividing exponents :
6.2 51 divided by 53 = 5(1 - 3) = 5(-2) = 1/52
Equation at the end of step 6 :
3 29
——— + ————
400 5000
Step 7 :
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
7.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 400
The right denominator is : 5000
| Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 4 | 3 | 4 |
| 5 | 2 | 4 | 4 |
| Product of all Prime Factors | 400 | 5000 | 10000 |
Least Common Multiple:
10000
Calculating Multipliers :
7.2 Calculate multipliers for the two fractions
Denote the Least Common Multiple by L.C.M
Denote the Left Multiplier by Left_M
Denote the Right Multiplier by Right_M
Denote the Left Deniminator by L_Deno
Denote the Right Multiplier by R_Deno
Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 25
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 2
Making Equivalent Fractions :
7.3 Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions
Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.
For example : 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent, y/(y+1)2 and (y2+y)/(y+1)3 are equivalent as well.
To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.
L. Mult. • L. Num. 3 • 25 —————————————————— = —————— L.C.M 10000 R. Mult. • R. Num. 29 • 2 —————————————————— = —————— L.C.M 10000
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
7.4 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
3 • 25 + 29 • 2 133
——————————————— = —————
10000 10000
Final result :
133
————— = 0.01330
10000
