Answer:

9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM of 5, 20, and 10 = 20

4/5

= 4/5 x 4/4

= ( 4 x 4 )/( 5 x 4 )

= 16/20

2/10

= ( 2/10 ) x ( 2/2 )

= ( 2 x 2 )/( 10 x 2 )

= 4/20

4/5 - 3/20 - 2/10

= 16/20 - 3/20 - 4/20

= ( 16 - 3 - 4 )/20

= ( 16 - 7 )/20

= 9/20

Answer:

9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find common denominators between all of the fractions.

All of these denominators can be multiplied by a whole number to equal 20.

For 4/5, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 4 to get 16/20

Leave 3/20 alone

For 2/10, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 2 to get 4/20

Now you have 16/20 - 3/20 - 4/20

= 9/20

Why do you cross-multiply when you solve proportions?

Llana [10]

Answer: The reason you cross multiply fractions is to compare them. Cross multiplying fractions tells us if the two fractions are equal or which one is greater. This is especially useful when you are working with larger fractions that you aren't sure how to reduce.

It works cause they have the same denominator
