You have to find a common denominator for both fractions. I chose the denominator to be 10, so the 1/2 will become 5/10, and 1/5 will become 2/10.
Subtract 5/10 from 2/10. You will get -3/10.
Answer: -3/10
You can check your answer by solving 1/2-3/10=1/5 to see if it is true. (It is:)
Answer:
The smallest of the said odd numbers is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is 3 odd numbers that sums up to 87, the first thing to do is to divide 87 by 3
That is 87/3 = 29, which is an odd number
The nearest odd numbers to 29 are 27 and 31, and the total of all these three odd numbers is 87
That is 27+29+31 = 87, which are consecutive odd numbers.
The smallest odd number here is therefore 27
