Question 1 Report

Simplify $\frac{(\frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{5}) - \frac{1}{3} of \frac{2}{5}}{3 - \frac{1}{1 \frac{1}{2}}}$

Answer Details

$\frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{5}$ = $\frac{10 - 3}{15}$
= $\frac{7}{15}$
$\frac{1}{3}$ Of $\frac{2}{5}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ x $\frac{2}{5}$
= $\frac{2}{5}$
( $\frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{5}$ ) - $\frac{1}{3}$ of $\frac{2}{5}$
= $\frac{7}{15} - \frac{2}{15}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$
3 - $\frac{1}{1 \frac{1}{2}}$ = 3 - $\frac{2}{3}$
= $\frac{7}{3}$
$\frac{\frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{5} of \frac{2}{15}}{3 - \frac{1}{1 \frac{1}{2}}}$
= $\frac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{7}{3}}$
= $\frac{1}{3}$ x $\frac{3}{7}$
= $\frac{1}{7}$
