Question

What is 9 1/5-3 2/3

Answer 1

the notebook


`9 (1)/(5) - 3 (2)/(3) = \\ \\ 9 (3)/(15) -3 (10)/(15) = \\ \\ 8 (18)/(15) - 3 (10)/(15) = \\ \\ 5 (8)/(15)`
Step-by-step explanation

We have a mixed operation with numbers . Each number is a whole and fractions . Then we subtract the total from the whole and fractions of fractions


`9 (1)/(5)` the number of mixed
9 integer

`(1)/(5)` fraction


`9 (1)/(5) - 3 (2)/(3) = \\ \\ 3 + 6 (1)/(5) - 3 - (2)/(3) = \\ \\ 6 (1)/(5) - (2)/(3) =`

by subtracting fractions must have the same value in the denominator .


`6 (1*3)/(5*3) - (2*5)/(3*5) = \\ \\ 6 (3)/(15) - (10)/(15) =`

3/15 < 10/15 We have to take the total 1 to subtract it was possible


`5 + 1 (3)/(15) - (10)/(15) = \\ \\ 5 + (15)/(15) + (3)/(15) - (10)/(15) = \\ \\ 5 (18)/(15) - (10)/(15) = 5 (8)/(15)`
