Answer: Subtract

Step-by-step explanation: Make your denominator equal using the concept of LCM, then subtract the numerators accordingly. Rewrite each fraction to its equivilent fraction with a denominator equal to the LCM=30, then you need to subtract the numberators, but make sure to reduce your answer to the lowest possible term. I hope this helps.
