Solution - Adding, subtracting and finding the least common multiple
Step by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "2.4" was replaced by "(24/10)". 2 more similar replacement(s)
Step 1 :
12
Simplify ——
5
Equation at the end of step 1 :
2 12
(13 - ——) - ——
10 5
Step 2 :
1
Simplify —
5
Equation at the end of step 2 :
1 12
(13 - —) - ——
5 5
Step 3 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
3.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 5 as the denominator :
13 13 • 5
13 = —— = ——————
1 5
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.2 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:
13 • 5 - (1) 64
———————————— = ——
5 5
Equation at the end of step 3 :
64 12
—— - ——
5 5
Step 4 :
Adding fractions which have a common denominator :
4.1 Adding fractions which have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
64 - (12) 52
————————— = ——
5 5
Final result :
52
—— = 10.40000
