in order to add/subtract fractions, the denominators must all be the same
so 2/5 = 4/10 right?
now
\[\frac{ 7 }{ 10 } + \frac{ 4 }{ 10 } - \frac{ 1 }{ 10 }\]7+4=11 now that the denominators are the same
11-1=10 add/subtract the numerators
then put it back over the denominator
10/10 = 1

so the correct answer is 1 right
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

total minus others
so
\[\frac{ 10 }{ 10 } - \frac{ 2 }{ 10 } - \frac{ 2 }{ 10 } - \frac{ 4 }{ 10 }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so is 4/10 the answer
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
yep :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but what if you simplify
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
ah, right
4 and 10 are both divizable by 2 right?
and so 4/2 = 2 10/2 = 5
so 4/10 simplified would be 2/5
