Calculation steps:

720–2324= (720 – 0) + (0–2324)= 720 +0 × 24–2324= 720 +024–2324= 720 +0 – 2324= 720 +-2324 = 719124

Further explanation

For the problem:

720–2324 = ?

Combine the whole numbers and fractions together:

(720 – 0) + (0–2324)

The whole numbers part is:

720 – 0 = 720

For the fractions part:

The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1 and 24 is 24. Multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction by whatever value will result in the denominator of each fraction being equal to the LCM:

0–2324=0 × 24–2324=024–2324

Now that the fractions have like denominators, subtract the numerators:

024–2324=0 – 2324=-2324

Put the whole number and fraction together:

720 +-2324=719124

The result is:

720–2324=719124
