Question

Using appropriate properties , find 7/5 × 5/12 − 3/12 × 7/5 − 1/15

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{7}{5} \times \frac{5}{12} - \frac{3}{12} \times \frac{7}{5} - \frac{1}{15} = \frac{7}{5} ( \frac{5}{12} - \frac{3}{12} ) - \frac{1}{15} = \frac{7}{5} \times \frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{15} = \frac{7}{30} - \frac{2}{30} = \frac{5}{30} = \frac{1}{6}$
