Answer:

  • Option B is correct.

Explanation:

To subtract fractions, we must check if the denominators of both fractions are the same.

  • 2/5 - 1/7
  • => 2 x 7/5 x 7 - 1 x 5/7 x 5
  • => 14/35 - 5/35

Now, let's subtract for the result.

  • => 9/35

Hence, Option B is correct.

Hoped this helped.
