Question

$$\frac{9}{17}-\frac{10}{17}+\frac{4}{17}$$

Evaluate

$\frac{3}{17}\approx 0.176470588$

Solution Steps

Since $\frac{9}{17}$ and $\frac{10}{17}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{9-10}{17}+\frac{4}{17}$$

Subtract $10$ from $9$ to get $-1$.

$$-\frac{1}{17}+\frac{4}{17}$$

Since $-\frac{1}{17}$ and $\frac{4}{17}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{-1+4}{17}$$

Add $-1$ and $4$ to get $3$.

$$\frac{3}{17}$$

Factor

$\frac{3}{17} = 0.17647058823529413$
