Question

8 whole 10/19 - 1 whole 5/19​

Answer 1

Answer:

8 whole 10/19 - 1 whole 5/19​ = 7 5/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1: First convert mixed fraction and then solve

$8 \frac{10}{19} = \frac{162}{19}$

And $1 \frac{5}{19} = \frac{24}{19}$

$8 \frac{10}{19} - 1\frac{5}{19} \\= \frac{162}{19} -\frac{24}{19} \\=\frac{162 -24}{19} \\= \frac{138}{19} \\= 7\frac{5}{19}$

Method 2:

$8 \frac{10}{19} - 1\frac{5}{19} \\ = ( 8-1)(\frac{10}{19} -\frac{5}{19})\\= 7(\frac{10 - 5}{19})= 7\frac{5}{19}$
