Question

$$\frac{(-2)+(-4)}{5\times3}$$

Evaluate

$-\frac{2}{5}=-0.4$

Solution Steps

Subtract $4$ from $-2$ to get $-6$.

$$\frac{-6}{5\times 3}$$

Multiply $5$ and $3$ to get $15$.

$$\frac{-6}{15}$$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{-6}{15}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $3$.

$$-\frac{2}{5}$$

Factor

$-\frac{2}{5} = -0.4$
