Question

How do I solve this

Answer 1

You wanna find a common denominator so put the problem like this

3 1/3.< You wanna take 3 (denominator)
And times it
By 5 then you wanna take the 5. - 2 2/5.< (deniminator) and times it by 3.
____ Your common denominator is 15

now it will look like this

3 1/15

-2 2/15
———-

Now subtract. You will need to borrow 1 from 3 since you cant subtract 2 by 1 so the 3 will become a 2 and the 1 will be come 11 and here you can subtract so this will be your answer.

2 11/15

-2 2/15
-———-
0 9/15

Thats your official answer 9/15 hope I helped :)
