Step 2.1

Write $1$ as a fraction with a common denominator.

$d = (\frac{25}{25} - \frac{3}{25}) \cdot 250$

Step 2.2

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$d = \frac{25 - 3}{25} \cdot 250$

Step 2.3

Subtract $3$ from $25$ .

$d = \frac{22}{25} \cdot 250$

Step 3

Step 3.1

Factor $25$ out of $250$ .

$d = \frac{22}{25} \cdot (25 (10))$

Step 3.2

Cancel the common factor.

$d = \frac{22}{25} \cdot (25 \cdot 10)$

Step 3.3

Rewrite the expression.

$d = 22 \cdot 10$

Step 4

Multiply $22$ by $10$ .

$d = 220$
