Question

10 3/9- 10 2/5 Im to lazy to do it please help me out.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{ \ - \frac{3}{45} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

10 3/9 - 10 2/5

we need to convert mixed fractions to improper fractions

$10 \frac{3}{9} = \frac{10 \times 9 + 3}{9} = \frac{93}{9}$

$10 \frac{2}{5} = \frac{10 \times 5 + 2}{5} = \frac{52}{5}$

Now, we have 93/9 - 52/5

We need to equate the denominators, before subtracting them.

$\frac{93}{9} - \frac{52}{5} = \frac{93 \times 5}{45} - \frac{52 \times 9}{45}$

$\frac{465}{45} - \frac{468}{45}$

$\frac{ - 3}{45}$

$\boxed{ - \frac{3}{45} }$

The result of 10 3/9- 10 2/5 is - 3/45
