Answer:
[tex]\sf \dfrac{11}{20} \quad or \quad 0.55[/tex]
Explanation:
[tex]\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{3}{4} - \dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]
make the denominators same by lcm
[tex]\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{5(3)}{20} - \dfrac{4(1)}{20}[/tex]
expand the following
[tex]\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{15}{20} - \dfrac{4}{20}[/tex]
Join the fractions together
[tex]\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{15-4}{20}[/tex]
Subtract the integers
[tex]\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{11}{20} \quad or \quad 0.55[/tex]
Answer:
11/20 or 0 whole 11/20 or 0.55
Step-by-step explanation:
- [tex]3/4 - 1/5[/tex]
Find the least common multiple (LCM) of 4 and 5 at first:
We can't do the LCM of 5 and 4,so just multiply them, 5*4 = 20
Now,
For 3/4 : divide 20 by 4,then multiply the result by 3.For 1/5 : divide 20 by 4, then multiply the result by 1. Simple!
- [tex] \cfrac{15 - 4}{20} [/tex]
Subtracting the numerators,
- [tex] \boxed{\cfrac{11}{20} }[/tex]
As a whole number:
- [tex]\boxed{0 \cfrac{11}{20} }[/tex]
As a decimal:
- [tex]\boxed{0.55 }[/tex]
