Answer: The simplified form of above expression is
(7)/(30)

Explanation:

Since we have given that


(9)/(10)-(2)/(3)\\

We need to solve the above expression to get the simplified answer:

1) Take the L.C.M. of 10 and 3.

L.C.M. of 10 and 3 = 30

2) Make the denominator 30 for each of the fraction .


(9)/(10)* (3)/(3)=(27)/(30)\\\\and\\\\(2)/(3)* (10)/(10)=(20)/(30)

3) Take the difference between them:


(27)/(30)-(20)/(30)\\\\=(7)/(30)

Hence, the simplified form of above expression is
(7)/(30)
