The first step to solving this is converting these mixed numbers into improper fractions. You would do that by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding the numerator to that number; this number replaces the numerator. It would look something like this:
1 8/10 --> 18/10
2 2/5 --> 12/5
Now, to subtract the second fraction from the first one, the denominators of both fractions must be the same. We can make them the same by multiplying the second fraction by 2:
12/5 * 2/2 = 24/10
Now we can set up the equation as:
18/10 - 24/10 = -6/10 --> -3/5
The answer is negative 3/5.
I hope this helps.
The correct way to move the decimal to find the quotient is b. two places to the right.
This is because 100 has two zeroes in it, so you know that you have to move the decimal either two places to the right or two places to the left.
100 is a positive number, and when multiplied by a positive number with a decimal, it makes an even larger number. So, you would move 23.8 decimal place two places to the right.
