Answer:

4

Explanation:

Let the blank = x

Thus,


(x)/(5)-(1)/(4)=(11)/(20)


\mathrm{Add\:}(1)/(4)\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}


(x)/(5)-(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)=(11)/(20)+(1)/(4)


\mathrm{simplify}


(x)/(5)=(4)/(5)


\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}5


(5x)/(5)=(4\cdot \:5)/(5)


\mathrm{simplify}

x = 4

Hence, the blank = 4

Equation =
(4)/(5)-(1)/(5)=(11)/(20)

Answer:


(4)/(5) (4/5)

just fill out 4 in the blank

Explanation:

1. Equal the denominator for 1/4

End result=
(11)/(20)

So all the other ones have to be made according to this

20/4=5

1x5=5


(1)/(4) will now be
(5)/(20)

2. Figure out what ?/5 will be

If this number is getting subtracted by
(5)/(20) then, we have to add
(11)/(20) by
(5)/(20) to get our answer.


(11)/(20) +(5)/(20) =(16)/(20)

this means that when
(16)/(20) gets subtracted by
(5)/(20) it will equal
(11)/(20)

3. Simplify 16/20 to it's lowest terms

5x4=20

20/5=4

so, each part (
(1)/(5)) worth's 4

20-4=16

So that means, that the simplest for for this is
(4)/(5)

So hence, your answer is 4/5

just fill out 4 in the blank
