Need help with da question

Shelby filled a bucket with 9 3/4 gallons of water. A few minutes later, she realized only 7 3/10 gallons of water remained. How much water had leaked out of the bucket?

Answer 1

2 9/20

Explanation:

`9(3)/(4)-7(3)/(10)\\(39)/(4) -(73)/(10)\\(39x5)/(4x5)-(73x2)/(10x2)\\(195)/(20)-(146)/(20)\\(49)/(20)\\2(9)/(20)`

*I used an x for the multiplication symbol...there's no variable involved in this.
