1 whole = 4 fourths 4 wholes = 16 fourths 4 wholes minus 2 fourths = 16 fourths minus 2 fourths = (16 - 2) fourths = 14 fourths 14 fourths = 3 wholes plus 2 fourths, or 3 wholes plus 1 tooth.
4 3/10 - 2 4/5 = 43/10 - 14/5 = 43/10 - 28/10 = 15/10 = 1 whole 1 over 2

There are three thirds (1/3s) in every whole, so there are six thirds in two wholes.
To represent 3 wholes as a fraction, we can write it as 3/1. This is because a whole number can be represented as the number over 1. So, 3 wholes is equivalent to the fraction 3/1. This fraction is also equal to the whole number 3.
3 - 1/2 = 2 and 1/2
