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 :)

3 : 5, 4: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the common multiplier of the given ratios be x.
Therefore, lengths of the legs of right triangle would be 3x and 4x
By Pythagoras Theorem:
The answer is 3, since 3*3*3 equals 27
