7/10 - 3/22 = 31/55

Step-by-step explanation:

7/10 - 3/22 = ?

first, you will need to make the fractions like-terms before subtracting them. you can do it like this:
(7/10)(11/11) - (3/22)(5/5)

now we have:
77/110 - 15/110 = ?

you can subtract 77-15 to get 62 for you numerator so your answer will look like this:
62/110

however, since we have to simplify the answer, you must divide the numerator and denominator by 2
(62/2)/(110/2)

now, you have your answer fully simplified! that answer should be…
31/55

so now to sum it up, 7/10 - 3/22 = 31/55

Answer:

EZ!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator the least common multiple of 10 and 22 is 110.

Rewriting the fractions with the common denominator, we have 77/110 - 30/110. Subtracting the numerators, we get 47/110

This is the simplifid answer
