Answer:
(5 15/20) -(2 8/20) = 3 7/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems in "least common denominator" are made much easier if you are familiar with your times tables.
When you compare the denominator 4 to the denominator 20, you see that ...
20 = 5 × 4
An equivalent fraction is made by multiplying by 1. Here, the version of 1 you want for the top fractions is 5/5.

Similarly, the bottom fraction has its denominator multiplied by 4 to get from 5 to 20. The equivalent fraction is found by multiplying the numerator by the same number.

Then the desired difference is ...

Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions of the first drawing will be 1/3 the dimensions of the leaf and the dimension of the oak leaf is 5 1/2 inches. Therefore, the dimensions of the 1st leaf:
= 1/3 × 5 1/2
= 1/3 × 11/2
= 11/6
= 1 5/6 inches
This is less than 5 1/2 inches
The dimensions of the second drawing will be 2 1/2 the dimensions of the leaf. This will be:
= 2 1/2 × 5 1/2
= 5/2 × 11/2
= 55/4
= 13 3/4 inches
Thus is greater than 5 1/2 inches
