Answer 2

Answer:

The answer for $\frac{2}{5}-\frac{1}{7}$ will be $\frac{9}{35}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

In context to the question asked,

We have to find the solution of the given fraction,

As per data given in the question,

We have,

$\frac{2}{5}-\frac{1}{7}$

To find the answer to the given fractions, we must first equalize their denominators by taking the LCM if they are not equal.

The LCM of $5$ and $7$ is $35$.

Therefore,

$=> \frac{2\times 7}{5\times 7}-\frac{1\times 5 }{7\times 5}$

$=> \frac{14}{35}-\frac{5}{35}$

Since, both the fraction have the same denominator:

Subtract the numerators,

$=> \frac{14-5}{35}$

$=> \frac{9}{35}$

Hence, the required solution is $\frac{9}{35}$.
