Answer 2

$\textbf {Hey there, here is the solution.}$

.............................................................................................

$\dfrac{1}{4} \bigg(\dfrac{1}{4}+ \dfrac{1}{3}\bigg) - \dfrac{2}{5}$

.

Make the denominators the same:

$= \dfrac{1}{4} \bigg(\dfrac{1\times 3}{4 \times 3}+ \dfrac{1 \times4 }{3 \times 4}\bigg) - \dfrac{2}{5}$

$= \dfrac{1}{4} \bigg(\dfrac{3}{12}+ \dfrac{4 }{12}\bigg) - \dfrac{2}{5}$

.

Add the fractions:

$= \dfrac{1}{4} \bigg(\dfrac{7}{12}\bigg) - \dfrac{2}{5}$

.

Multiply the fractions:

$= \dfrac{7}{48} - \dfrac{2}{5}$

.

Make the denominators the same:

$= \dfrac{7 \times 5}{48 \times 5} - \dfrac{2 \times 48}{5 \times 48}$

$= \dfrac{35}{240} - \dfrac{96}{240}$

.

Subtract the fractions:

$=- \dfrac{61}{240}$
