Full solution

Q. Subtract.\newline71035=\frac{7}{10} - \frac{3}{5} = _____
  1. Write Subtraction Problem: Write the subtraction problem with a common denominator.\newline71035\frac{7}{10} - \frac{3}{5}\newlineSince the denominators are different, we need to find a common denominator. The least common denominator (LCD) for 1010 and 55 is 1010.\newline35\frac{3}{5} can be converted to 610\frac{6}{10} because 3×2=63 \times 2 = 6 and 5×2=105 \times 2 = 10.\newlineNow we have 710610\frac{7}{10} - \frac{6}{10}.
  2. Subtract Numerators: Subtract the numerators and write the result over the common denominator.\newline710610=(76)10\frac{7}{10} - \frac{6}{10} = \frac{(7 - 6)}{10}\newline76=17 - 6 = 1\newlineSo, 710610=110\frac{7}{10} - \frac{6}{10} = \frac{1}{10}.
  3. Check for Simplification: Check for any possible simplification. 110\frac{1}{10} is already in its simplest form, so no further simplification is needed.
