Answer:
20-(10 2/9)-(5 1/4)= 4.52777777778 inches decimal or 163/36
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
20 - (10 + 2/9) - (5 + 1/4)
Put 10 + 2/9 over the common denominator 9. 10 + 2/9 = (9×10)/9 + 2/9:
20 - (9×10)/9 + 2/9 - (5 + 1/4)
9×10 = 90:
20 - (90/9 + 2/9) - (5 + 1/4)
90/9 + 2/9 = (90 + 2)/9:
20 - (90 + 2)/9 - (5 + 1/4)
90 + 2 = 92:
20 - 92/9 - (5 + 1/4)
Put 5 + 1/4 over the common denominator 4. 5 + 1/4 = (4×5)/4 + 1/4:
20 - 92/9 - (4×5)/4 + 1/4
4×5 = 20:
20 - 92/9 - (20/4 + 1/4)
20/4 + 1/4 = (20 + 1)/4:
20 - 92/9 - (20 + 1)/4
20 + 1 = 21:
20 - 92/9 - 21/4
Put 20 - 92/9 - 21/4 over the common denominator 36. 20 - 92/9 - 21/4 = (36×20)/36 + (4 (-92))/36 + (9 (-21))/36:
(36×20)/36 + (4 (-92))/36 + (9 (-21))/36

720/36 + (4 (-92))/36 + (9 (-21))/36
4 (-92) = -368:
720/36 + (-368)/36 + (9 (-21))/36
9 (-21) = -189:
720/36 - 368/36 + (-189)/36
720/36 - 368/36 - 189/36 = (720 - 368 - 189)/36:
(720 - 368 - 189)/36
720 - 368 - 189 = 720 - (368 + 189):
(720 - (368 + 189))/36
