5 cant be simplified anymore, its a prime
When you are subtracting fractions, you must come up with a common denominator. The common denominator between 5/6 and 1/5 would be 30. So, to get to thirty, you must multiply the numerators by the same number it takes to get to 30. So it would be 25/30-6/30 You just subtract the numerators to get 21/30 Then you are left with 21/30/4/5 You would use the KCF method (keep, change, flip) method. You would keep the first fraction the same (21/30) You would then change the division sign to a multiplication sign (21/30*) Then, you would flip the other fraction (4/5 becomes 5/4) You would then multiply normally (21/30*5/4) to get 100/120 Does that make sense? o.e
shes asking to simplify not make it more complex
Yes
Simplifying means getting it down to where you can't do anything else to it. The equation she is given allows you to simplify it some more because they are all like terms o.e
yeah but 5 isnt devisible
So? You can still subtract the two fractions and divide by the last fraction o-o
ok
