Answer:

19/40

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Make sure the bottom numbers (the denominators) are the same

Find the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) between the denominators.

-The LCM of two denominators is ''40''

  • Divide the LCM of two denominators in each denominators

40 divided by 5 is equal to 8 and 40 divided by 8 is equal to 5

  • Then the multiply the quotient to the numerators

3 multiply by 8 is 24 and 1 multiply by 5 is 5 then subtract

  • Then copy the result as a new numerator and copy ''40'' as a new denominator

24/40 - 5/40=N

  • Then subtract

24/40 - 5/40= 19/40

EASY STEPS

  1. Cross-multiply the two fractions and subtract the second number from the first to get the numerator of the answer.
  2. Multiply the two denominators together to get the denominator of the answer.
  3. Putting the numerator over the denominator gives you your answer.
