Answer:


4(7)/(20)

Explanation:


9(1)/(10)-4(3)/(4)

Convert in improper fractions:


(10*9+1 )/(10) -(4*4+3)/(4)\\\\(90+1)/(10)-(16+3)/(4)\\\\(91)/(10)-(19)/(4) < ==find\ the\ LCM\ or\ the\ common\ denominator\ for\ 10\ and\ 4\ (20)\\\\(182)/(20) -(95)/(20)\\\\ (87)/(20) < ==convert\ to\ a\ mixed\ fraction\\\\ 4(7)/(20)

Multiples of 4:

4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40

Multiples of 10:

10, 20, 30, 40

Hope this helps!
