Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
is the expression given to be solved.
First of all let us have a look at <u>3 formulas</u>:

Both the formula can be applied to the expression(
) during the first step while solving it.
<u>Applying formula (1):</u>
Comparing the terms of
with 

So,
is reduced to 
<u>Applying formula (2):</u>
Comparing the terms of
with 

So,
is reduced to
.
So, the answers can be:


As a decimal 4/15 = 0.2666667
As a decimal 3/10 = 0.3 [talk about close]
3/10 is bigger.
You could take an average to find something between 4/15 and 3/10
1/2(4/15 + 2/10)
1/2(8/30 + 6/30)
1/2(14/30)
1/2(7/15)
7/30 is between the two given numbers..
