Answer: B.1 2/5 − a fraction less than 2/5

Explanation:

Question was not formatted properly and in the proper format, the above is the answer.

1²/₅ - ²/₅ = 1

Any number therefore that is lower than ²/₅ will when subtracted from 1²/₅ give an answer greater than 1 because when ²/₅ was subtracted from 1²/₅, it gave 1 as an answer.
