3/8 of 40 = 3/8 x 40 = 15
4/5 - 3/8 = 32/40 - 15/40 = 17/40
5/8-3/10 = 25/40 - 12/40 = 13/40
3/5 is the same as 24/40. 3/8 is the same as 15/40. Add them together and you get 39/40.
(7/8) - (3/5) = (35/40) - (24/40) = 11/40 = 0.275
3/8 of 40 = 3/8 x 40 = 15
3/8 + 3/5 = 15/40 + 24/40 = 39/40
15/40 = (3x5)/(8x5) = 3/8
LCM of 10 and 8 is 40. 8/10 = 32/40, 3/8 = 15/40 No contest!
4/5 - 3/8 = 32/40 - 15/40 = 17/40
40/15 = 8/3 or 2 2/3
1/8 + 3/5 = 5/40 + 24/40 = 29/40
5/8-3/10 = 25/40 - 12/40 = 13/40
3/5 is the same as 24/40. 3/8 is the same as 15/40. Add them together and you get 39/40.
(7/8) - (3/5) = (35/40) - (24/40) = 11/40 = 0.275
15/40 = 3/8
The answer is " 3/8 " OR " 3 over 8 ". -Answered
