Step  1  :

            53
 Simplify   ——
            10

Equation at the end of step  1  :

   136    26     53
  (——— -  ——) -  ——
   10     10     10

Step  2  :

            13
 Simplify   ——
            5 

Equation at the end of step  2  :

   136    13     53
  (——— -  ——) -  ——
   10     5      10

Step  3  :

            68
 Simplify   ——
            5 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

   68    13     53
  (—— -  ——) -  ——
   5     5      10

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:

 68 - (13)     11
 —————————  =  ——
     5         1 

Equation at the end of step  4  :

  11    53
  —— -  ——
  1     10

Step  5  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

 5.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  10  as the denominator :

           11     11 • 10
     11 =  ——  =  ———————
           1        10   

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 :

 5.2       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:

 11 • 10 - (53)     57
 ——————————————  =  ——
       10           10

Final result :

  57           
  —— = 5.70000
