Answer this question

Answer 1

Answer:

31/60

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference of 5 and 17/5 is:

5-17/5

=(25-17)/5

=8/5

sum of the given numbers:

1/2+1/3+1/4=(12+8+6)/24 {LCM is calculated as 24}

=26/24

=13/12

given the sum of above numbers is taken away from the difference that we calculated in the first step.

{suppose u have 10 candies and someone takes away 5 of them from you ....what will happen? u will be left with 5 right! So if u take away something from somewhere, the overall result will be small.So you just take the difference between them or simply speaking subtract..okay}

so your answer will be :

8/5-13/12 =(96-65)/60 {LCM is calculated as 60}

=31/60
