    Solution for the given fractions

    • 4/5 - 5/4 = ?
    • The common denominator of the two fractions is: 20
    • 4/5 = (4*4)/(4*5) = 16/20
    • 5/4 = (5*5)/(4*5) = 25/20
    • Fractions adjusted to a common denominator
    • 4/5 - 5/4 = 16/20 - 25/20
    • 16/20 - 25/20 = (16-25)/20
    • (16-25)/20 = -9/20

    Solution for the given fractions

    $ \frac{4}{5 }-\frac{ 5}{4 }=? $

    The common denominator of the two fractions is: 20

    $ \frac{4}{5 }= \frac{(4*4)}{(4*5)} =\frac{ 16}{20} $

    $ \frac{5}{4 }= \frac{(5*5)}{(4*5)} =\frac{ 25}{20} $

    Fractions adjusted to a common denominator

    $ \frac{4}{5 }-\frac{ 5}{4 }=\frac{ 16}{20 }-\frac{ 25}{20} $

    $ \frac{16}{20 }-\frac{ 25}{20 }= \frac{(16-25)}{20} $

    $ \frac{(16-25)}{20 }= -\frac{9}{20} $

    $ $
