= -1/2- (-2/5)
= -1/2 + 2/5
find common denominator (2 goes in 10 five times; 5 goes in 10 twice)
= -(5*1)/10 + (2*2)/10
= -5/10 + 4/10
= -1/10
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Straight angle is 180°</u>
- JKL = MKL + JKM
- 180° = 85° + x
- x = 180° - 85°
- x = 95°
Cancelling fractions is also called simplifying fractions. Basically, a fraction can be made simpler by dividing the top and bottom by the same number. Both the top and bottom must divide evenly for you to simplify the fraction.
How do you reduce fractions before multiplying?
The first step when multiplying fractions is to multiply the two numerators. The second step is to multiply the two denominators. Finally, simplify the new fractions. The fractions can also be simplified before multiplying by factoring out common factors in the numerator and denominator.
