first you need to find the least common denominator which in this case it is 40. since 5 and 8 both go into 40.

5/8 = 25/40

3/5 = 24/40

25/40 - 24/40 =1/40

does this make sense to you?

6,666,666×666,666 /1+2+3+4+5+6+5+4+3+2+1 − 777,777×777,777/1+2+3+4+5+6+7+6+5+4+3+2+1

Answer:

111111 $\times$ 1111110 is the simple expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression to be solved:

$\dfrac{6,666,666\times666,666 }{1+2+3+4+5+6+5+4+3+2+1} - \dfrac{777,777\times777,777}{1+2+3+4+5+6+7+6+5+4+3+2+1}$

First of all, let us solve the first term:

$\dfrac{6,666,666\times666,666 }{1+2+3+4+5+6+5+4+3+2+1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{6666666\times666666 }{36}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{6666666\times666666 }{6\times 6}\\\Rightarrow 1111111\times 111111$

Now, the right term:

$\dfrac{777777\times777777}{1+2+3+4+5+6+7+6+5+4+3+2+1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{777777\times777777}{49}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{777777\times777777}{7 \times 7}\\\Rightarrow 111111 \times 111111$

So, the expression to be solved becomes:

$1111111\times 111111-111111\times 111111\\\Rightarrow 111111(1111111-1)\\\Rightarrow 111111\times 1111110$
