8/10 - 1/5 is 3/5. You simplify the 8/10 to 4/5 and then subtract 1/5.
The answer is seven-fifths because if the denominator is the same it stays the same and the numerators, 8-1=7
Two quarters minus two thirds is negative one sixth. Two quarters is six twelfths, and two thirds is eight twelfths. Six twelfths minus eight twelfths is minus two twelfths or minus one sixth.
Eight Fifths
one minus eleven twelfths = 1 - 11/12 = 12/12 - 11/12 = 1/12
It is eleven twelfths.
Three twelves is 36. Four twelves is 48. 36 - 48 = -12. Three twelfths - fourth twelfths equals minus one twelfth.
Two quarters minus two thirds is negative one sixth. Two quarters is six twelfths, and two thirds is eight twelfths. Six twelfths minus eight twelfths is minus two twelfths or minus one sixth.
One fourth is three twelfths. So eleven twelfths minus three twelfths is eight twelfths, which is also two thirds.
seven twelfths
six twelfths
Eight Fifths
one minus eleven twelfths = 1 - 11/12 = 12/12 - 11/12 = 1/12
nine twelfths eight twelfths ........ down to .........one twelfth
seven twelfths
It is eleven twelfths.
One half minus one fifth is 3 tenths
7/12 minus 1/3 is 1/4.
You change five sixths into ten twelfths and three quarters into nine twelfths. Then you subtract the nine twelfths from the ten twelfths, which equals one twelfth.
