only one question plz help

Mehek (mehek14):

\(\dfrac{9}{10}-\dfrac{7}{20}\) first you need common denominators

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its 11/20, correct?

Mehek (mehek14):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay, can you show some work ( a little ) on how to get 11/20?

Mehek (mehek14):

ok so common denominator of 10 and 20 is 20 you would multiply the denominator 10 by 2 and the numerator 9 by 2 which gives you \(\dfrac{18}{20}\) \(\dfrac{18}{20}-\dfrac{7}{20}\) all you have to do is subtract 18 - 7 and keep the denominator 20 18 - 7 = 11 \(\dfrac{11}{20}\)

OpenStudy (lolacole12):

\[\frac{ 9 }{ 10 } - \frac{ 7 }{ 20}\] First we have to bring the base numbers to an equal value \[\frac{ 9*2 }{ 10*2 } - \frac{ 7*1 }{20*1 }= \frac{ 18 }{ 20 }- \frac{ 7 }{ 20 }\] when u simplify the equation u will get 11/20 that is the remaining area
