The value of $\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{8}-\frac{4}{5}$

Solution -

For simplifying we will use BODMAS,

As per BODMAS rule,

B for Bracket

A for Addition

S for Subtraction

Given ,

$\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{8}-\frac{4}{5}$

For addition or subtraction of fraction number both the denominator should be same.

Add 1/3 and 5/8

Multiply 1/3 by 8/8 and 5/8 by 3/3 we get

= $\frac{8}{24}+\frac{15}{24}-\frac{4}{5}$

= $\frac{8+15}{24} - \frac{4}{5}$

= $\frac{23}{24} -\frac{4}{5}$

Multiply 23/24 by 5/5 and 4/5 by 24/24 we get

= $\frac{115}{120} -\frac{96}{120}$

=$\frac{115-96}{120}$

= $\frac{19}{120}$

= $0.158$ (in decimal)

∴ The value of $\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{8}-\frac{4}{5}$ is 19\120 .
