Answer:
True both are 28/15
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
5 + 2/3 - (3 + 4/5)
Put 3 + 4/5 over the common denominator 5. 3 + 4/5 = (5×3)/5 + 4/5:
5 + 2/3 - (5×3)/5 + 4/5
5×3 = 15:
5 + 2/3 - (15/5 + 4/5)
15/5 + 4/5 = (15 + 4)/5:
5 + 2/3 - (15 + 4)/5
15 + 4 = 19:
5 + 2/3 - 19/5
Put 5 + 2/3 - 19/5 over the common denominator 15. 5 + 2/3 - 19/5 = (15×5)/15 + (5×2)/15 + (3 (-19))/15:
(15×5)/15 + (5×2)/15 + (3 (-19))/15
15×5 = 75:
75/15 + (5×2)/15 + (3 (-19))/15
5×2 = 10:
75/15 + 10/15 + (3 (-19))/15
3 (-19) = -57:
75/15 + 10/15 + (-57)/15
75/15 + 10/15 - 57/15 = (75 + 10 - 57)/15:
(75 + 10 - 57)/15

Simplify the following:
1 + 13/15
Put 1 + 13/15 over the common denominator 15. 1 + 13/15 = 15/15 + 13/15:
15/15 + 13/15
15/15 + 13/15 = (15 + 13)/15:
(15 + 13)/15

Step-by-step explanation:
Portion remaining after the bar was eaten by his brother = 1 - 1/5 = 4/5.
Portion remaining after John ate 3/4 of this = 4/5 - 3/4* 4/5 = 4/5 - 3/5
= 1/5.
