( (3)/(4) )^2= (3)/(4) * (3)/(4) and multiply across. Then you have
(9)/(16) - (1)/(10). You want each fraction to have the same denominator so
(9)/(16) * (10)/(10) and
(1)/(10) * (16)/(16). This results in
(90)/(160) - (16)/(160) = (74)/(160) = (37)/(80). 37 is a prime number so you can't reduce any further.
