For subtraction, you need to first convert to common denominator.
Multiply top and bottom of first fraction by 7.
Multiply top and bottom of second fraction by 5
8 and 2/5 = 42/5 = 294/35
4 and 5/7 = 33/7 = 165/35
Now subtract the numerators, and put the result over the common denominator.
294 - 165 = 129/35
Next check to see if the fraction can be simplified.
35 = 7 X 5
129 doesn't end in 5 or 0, so it is not evenly divisible by 5.
Next check to see if 7 goes evenly into 129. No, it doesn't, so the fraction is in simplest form. You could convert it into a mixed number or leave it as an improper fraction.
Answer: 129/35
