Answer 1

Steps:

6 1/4 - 4 3/15 can also be written as 25/4 - 23/5

The LCD of 4 and 5 is 20.

That gives us 125/20 - 92/20.

Now, just subtract the numerators (leave the denominators the same).

That brings us to 33/20, which can be simplified to 1 13/20

Final Answer:

$1\frac{13}{20}$

Answer 2

Answer:

1 $\frac{13}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert both $\frac{1}{4}$ and $\frac{3}{5}$ into a common denominator. 4 multiplied by 5 is 20. 20 works for both 4 and five. So convert the denominator into 20. Multiply $\frac{1}{4}$ by $\frac{5}{5}$ and multiply $\frac{3}{5}$ by $\frac{4}{4}$

2. You should've gotten, $\frac{5}{20}$ and $\frac{12}{20}$

3. 6 - 4 = 2, so 2 $\frac{5}{20}$ - $\frac{12}{20}$

4. You have to convert 1 into $\frac{20}{20}$ and add that to $\frac{5}{20}$. You should've got $\frac{25}{20}$

5. Subtract.

The Answer is 1 $\frac{13}{20}$
