Answer:

The simplified form of the provided expression is:
(1)/(2)k-(3)/(5) or
(5k-6)/(10).

Explanation:

Consider the provided expression.


(2)/(5)k-(3)/(5)+(1)/(10)k

The above expression can be written as:


(2)/(5)k+(1)/(10)k-(3)/(5)

Now add the like terms.


(4k+k)/(10)-(3)/(5)


(5k)/(10)-(3)/(5)


(1)/(2)k-(3)/(5)

Or


(5k-6)/(10)

Hence, the simplified form of the provided expression is:
(1)/(2)k-(3)/(5) or
(5k-6)/(10).
