How to do 15 1/2 - 2 1/10 how to do it

Answer 1

First, you need to make the fractions have the same denominator:

15 1/2 ---> 15 + (1/2 x 5) = 15 5/10

2 1/10 ---> 2 1/10

Then you need to subtract them from each other:

15 5/10

- 2 1/10 (or) 15 5/10 - 2 1/10 = 13 4/10

13 4/10

This gets the answer: 13 4/10
