(1X)/(2)-(3)/(5) - subtract fractions

Solution for the given fractions

• (1*X)/2 - 3/5 = ?
• The common denominator of the two fractions is: 10
• (1*X)/2 = (1*5*X)/(2*5) = (5*X)/10
• 3/5 = (2*3)/(2*5) = 6/10
• Fractions adjusted to a common denominator
• (1*X)/2 - 3/5 = (5*X)/10 - 6/10
• (5*X)/10 - 6/10 = (5*X-6)/10
• (5*X-6)/10 = (5*X-6)/10

Solution for the given fractions

$ \frac{(1*X)}{2 }-\frac{ 3}{5 }=? $

The common denominator of the two fractions is: 10

$ \frac{(1*X)}{2 }= \frac{(1*5*X)}{(2*5)} = \frac{(5*X)}{10} $

$ \frac{3}{5 }= \frac{(2*3)}{(2*5)} =\frac{ 6}{10} $

Fractions adjusted to a common denominator

$ \frac{(1*X)}{2 }-\frac{ 3}{5 }= \frac{(5*X)}{10 }-\frac{ 6}{10} $

$ \frac{(5*X)}{10 }-\frac{ 6}{10 }= \frac{(5*X-6)}{10} $

$ \frac{(5*X-6)}{10 }= \frac{(5*X-6)}{10} $
