Answer:
(1)/(10)

Explanation:

First, we need to find the common denominator

The easiest way to do this is by multiplying the two given denominators, which are 2 and 5.

2 × 5 = 10

So, our common denominator is 10. Then, multiply the numerators of the two fractions by 2 and 5. Here's why:


(3*2)/(5*2) =
(6)/(10) We multiplied the top and bottom by 2 to make sure our new fraction stays equivalent to the original fraction.

Do the same thing for the other one:


(1*5)/(2*5) =
(5)/(10)

Finally, subtract the two fractions to find the difference between the two times:


(6)/(10) -(5)/(10) =
(1)/(10)

The reason we used the common denominator is because we can only add or subtract fractions if they have the same denominator.
