Question

What is ; 3 3/4 - 2 1/5 thanks!

Answer 1

1
`(11)/(20)`

Explanation:

3
`(3)/(4)` - 2
`(1)/(5)`

Multiply 3 and 4 to get 12.

`(12+3)/(4) - (2x5+1)/(5)`

Add 12 and 3 to get 15.

`(15)/(4) - (2x5+1)/(5)`

Multiply 2 and 5 to get 10.

`(15)/(4)` -
`(10+1)/(5)`

Add 10 and 1 to get 11.

`(15)/(4) - (11)/(5)`

The least common multiple of 4 and 5 is 20. Convert
`(15)/(4)` and
`(11)/(5)` to fractions with denominator 20.

`(75)/(20) - (44)/(20)`

Since
`(75)/(20)` and
`(44)/(20)` have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

`(75 - 44)/(20)`

Subtract 44 from 75 to get 31.

`(31)/(20)`

Simplify

`(31)/(2^(2) x 5 )` =
`1(11)/(20)`

Hope it helps and have a great day! =D

Answer 2

Answer:1 11/20 (I think)

Step-by-step explanation: First subtracting 3 - 2 gets you 1. so we keep that aside and do fractions. first, what do 4 and 5 have in common? They both can be turned to 20. 3/4 can be multiplied to 20 4x5(20) so we do 3x5=15 now you have 15/20. Hope this makes sense. now we do 1/5 to ?/20 5x4=20 1x4=4 so 15/20-4/20=11/20 11/20+1= 1 11/20

-Sorry if its too complicated

(undo ur answer if u trusted me before bc I messed up)

(its good now)
