3.4 or three and two fifths
Two fifths is six fifteenths. Eleven fifteenths minus six fifteenths is five fifteenths, which is also one third.
minus one fifteenth (-1/15)
4/5 is the answer.
To subtract two fifths from sixteen fifteenths, first convert two fifths to fifteenths. Two fifths is equivalent to six fifteenths (since (2 \times 3 = 6) and (5 \times 3 = 15)). Now, subtract: (16/15 - 6/15 = 10/15), which simplifies to (2/3). Therefore, sixteen fifteenths minus two fifths equals two thirds.
