Answer:
hello!
The answer is 2.35.
This always helped me. Lets ignore the whole numbers until the very end so we end up with 3/5-1/3.
With adding and subtracting, you have to have the same denominator so what can we multiply to each denominator to make them the same. Usually you want the lowest number so you have less simplifying at the end.
What we can do is 5*3 and 3*5. whatever you multiply the bottom with you have to multiply the top with, so 3*3 and 3*5 for the first one and it would come out as 9/15 and for the second one it would be 1*5 and 3*5 and it would come out as 5/15.
Your equation now is 9/15-5/15. For addition and subtraction you keep the denominator the same so you would only do 9-5=4
So your equation now is 4/15. Now go on to your whole numbers basically you just do 4-2=2
If you add those two solutions together you get 2 4/15
