Answer:

3/10

Explanation:

1. find the lowest common denominator which is 10.

2. for 4/5 you have to multiply 5 by 2 in order to get 10, so you multiply the numerator by 2 as well which gives you 8/10.

3. for 1/2 you have to multiply 2 by 5 in order to get 10, so you multiply the numerator by 5 also which gives you 5/10

4. you work out the difference between both numerators which is 3 and keep the denominator the same
