Answer 3

first change the mixed fraction in to fraction
\[2\frac{ 2 }{ 3 } = \frac{ 8 }{ 3 }\]
then find the LCD for 3 and 5
their LCD would be 15
\[\color{red}{5}*\frac{ 8 }{ 3 } - \color{red}{3}*\frac{ 3 }{ 5 }\]
\[\frac{ 40 }{ 15 }-\frac{9}{15} = \frac{31}{15}\]

Answer 4

then turn \[\frac{ 31 }{ 15 }\] into mixed fraction
