$\boldsymbol{\sf{(5)/(7)-(3)/(2) }}$

The least common multiple of 7 and 2 is 14. Convert 5/7 and 3/2 to fractions with like denominators.

$\boldsymbol{\sf{ (5*2)/(7*2)-(3*7)/(2*7) \ \ \to \ \ \ Simplify }}$

$\boldsymbol{\sf{(10)/(14)-(21)/(14) }}$

Since 10/14 and 21/14 have the same denominator, subtract their numerators to subtract them.

$\boldsymbol{\sf{(10-21)/(14) \ \ \to \ \ \ Subtract}}$

Subtract 21 from 10 to get −11.

$\red{\boxed{\boldsymbol{\sf{-(11)/(14) }}}} \ \ \to \ \ \boldsymbol{\sf{Answer}}$

$(5)/(7) \: - \: (3)/(2)$

First, we find the lowest common denominator which is "14", we put it in the common numerator.

$(10 \: - \: 21)/(14)$

$\boxed{ \bold{- (11)/(14) }}$
