Answer :
Answer:
[tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to make the denominators the same.
[tex]\frac{7}{10} -\frac{2}{5} =\frac{7}{10} -\frac{2*2}{5*2}=\frac{7}{10} -\frac{4}{10}[/tex]
Then, we subtract the numerator.
[tex]\frac{7}{10} -\frac{4}{10} =\frac{3}{10}[/tex]
Find the LCD (lowest common denominator) of 10 and 5.
LCD of 10 and 5 is 10.
5 x 2 = 10 so, 2 x 2 = 4 because whatever you do to the denominator, you do to the numerator.
7/10 - 4/10 = 3/10
