Step  1  :

            28
 Simplify   ——
            5 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         28     28
  (14 -  ——) -  ——
         10     5 

Step  2  :

            14
 Simplify   ——
            5 

Equation at the end of step  2  :

         14     28
  (14 -  ——) -  ——
         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 :

           14     14 • 5
     14 =  ——  =  ——————
           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:

 14 • 5 - (14)     56
 —————————————  =  ——
       5           5 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  56    28
  —— -  ——
  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:

 56 - (28)     28
 —————————  =  ——
     5         5 

Final result :

  28           
  —— = 5.60000
