Answer:
1
Explanation:
1. One way to do this is converting both into improper fractions. To do this, multiply the whole number by the denominator and add that to the numerator.
2 3/5 --> 2*5 is 10 --> 10+3 is 13. --> 13/5
2. This leaves us with 13/5 - 8/5
3. Subtract the numerators
13/5 - 8/5 = 5/5
4. Simplify. If the numerator is the same number as the denominator, it's a whole number.
5/5 = 1
