Question

10 3/9- 10 2/5 Im to lazy to do it please help me out.

Answer 1

`\boxed{ \ - (3)/(45) }`

Explanation:

10 3/9 - 10 2/5

we need to convert mixed fractions to improper fractions

`10 (3)/(9) = (10 * 9 + 3)/(9) = (93)/(9)`

`10 (2)/(5) = (10 * 5 + 2)/(5) = (52)/(5)`

Now, we have 93/9 - 52/5

We need to equate the denominators, before subtracting them.

`(93)/(9) - (52)/(5) = (93 * 5)/(45) - (52 * 9)/(45)`

`(465)/(45) - (468)/(45)`

`( - 3)/(45)`

`\boxed{ - (3)/(45) }`

The result of 10 3/9- 10 2/5 is - 3/45
