Question

3/5 - 1/3 what is the answer to that problem can some one help me ?

Answer 1

Hi!

You need to find the common divider, so you can subtract them, in this case, it's 15.

(3*3)/(5*3) - (1*5)/(3*5) = 9/15 - 5-15 = 4/15

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Hello!

Explanation:

$\frac{3}{5}- \frac{1}{3}$

First, multiply by the numbers and denominators. 5*3

$5*3=15$

$\frac{9}{15}- \frac{5}{15}$

Then, you subtract by the number that came from numerator. 9-5

$9-5=4$

Answer: $\frac{4}{15}$

Hope this helps!
