one tenth
2/5 - 1/10 = 4/10 - 1/10 = 3/10
1 and 4 fifths.
It would be two fifths turned into tenths which is two tenths - (when you turn fifths into tenths, you multiply it by 2 so you do the same with the numerator.) You do not change the denominator so you subtract the numerators 2-1=1. The answer is one tenth.
1 tenth 3/5 x 2/2 = 6/10 7/10 - 6/10 = 1/10
It is: 1/2 minus 2/5 = 1/10
It is: 2 and 1/3 minus 2/5 = 1 and 14/15
Well, darling, to subtract 2/5 from 2 1/3, you first need to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions. That gives you 7/3 minus 2/5. Find a common denominator, which is 15, and then do the math to get 31/15 or 2 1/15. Voila!
1 and 4 fifths.
One whole minus two fifths is three fifths.
No. 1/10 = .1 2/5 = .4
18/20 minus 2/5 is 1/2.
