Ok, so 1 is a whole number.  1/5 is a fraction of 1.  So you want to subtract 1/5 from 1.  The number 1 is equal to 5/5.  So if you subtract 1/5 from 5/5 you are left with 4/5.  You do the same with the second one, just subtract 3/5 from 5/5 to get your answer.

What you want to do is convert the 1, a whole number into a fraction. Since the denominator is 5, 5/5 makes 1 whole. So your question now reads, 5/5 - 1/5.  Change any equation so that you have all common denominators 
The second problem the whole number is still 5/5. So the equation becomes 5/5 - 3/5.    With common denominators, it becomes a simple subtraction, 5 - 1  and 5 - 3  Hope it helped!

Look at the point P on the number line.Which number lines have a point that is equal to pointP? Check all that apply.р
Viktor [21]

In the given Number line the differece between each interval is 10

and the Point P is at -40

Since,

In the graph

A)

the first is -60, then it will be -50 So,

The point P is at -50

Thus the the number line have the same point

B) In the given number line the first point is -60

then -50, -40 and then -30

So, the point is at -30

This number line is not equal to the given number line

C) In the given number line the first point is at -60

and there are three interval so, the the three interval have the values 20

So, the second point will be -40

and the third will be -20

So, the point is at -40

The number line is equal to given number line

D) In the given number line, the interval are divided by 4 parts so

the each interval of the 15 units

the first is at -60

second is at -45

and the point is at -45

So, The number line is not equal to the given number line
