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:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
because 80 percent of 20 dollars is 16 dollars meaning they are selling the jacket for 16 dollars more than the original price. 16+20 is 36 dollars.
The equivalent measures to 3 yards are;
108 inches and ; 6 ft 36 inches
Here, we want to get the values of the measurements that are equivalent to 3 yards
To do this, we need to know how to convert between the various measure types
We proceed as follows;
Mathematically, 1 yard is 36 inches; also, 1 yard is 3 feet
So, 3 yards is (3*36) = 108 inches
Also, 3 yards is (3*3) = 9 feet
Also, 1 ft is 12 inches;
So, 6 ft 12 inches is 7 feet
108 inches is as seen above, so 3 yards equal this
3 yards is not 108 feet as calculated above
6 ft 36 inches
36 inches is 3 ft; so by addition; 6 ft 36 inches is 9 ft
So, the correct answers here are 108 inches and 6 ft 36 inches
