Question:

Solution:

Let us denote by x the blank space in the given equation. Then, we get:


(7)/(5)-x+(3)/(2)=(6)/(5)

this is equivalent to:


(7)/(5)+(3)/(2)-x=(6)/(5)

this is equivalent to:


(14+15)/(10)-x=(6)/(5)

that is:


(29)/(10)-x=(6)/(5)

solving for x, we obtain:


(29)/(10)-(6)/(5)=x

that is:


x=(29)/(10)-(6)/(5)=(29-12)/(10)=(17)/(10)

so that, the blank space would be:


(17)/(10)

and the complete expression would be:


(7)/(5)-(17)/(10)+(3)/(2)=(6)/(5)

7/5-6/5+3/2=17/10=1 7/10-example-1
