Question

What must be subtracted from 29/5 to get 27/10

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number subtracted =x

29/5 -x= 27/10

x = 29/5-27/10

=58/10-27/10

=31/10

Answer 2

Answer:

31 / 10 or we can write it as 3.1

Step-by-step explanation:

As, we have to subtract any number from 29 / 5 to get 27 / 10,

so , let the number to be subtracted be x

therefore , 29 / 5 - x = 27 / 10

(now interchanging the terms , by taking 27 / 10 to the LHS)

29 / 5 - 27 / 10 = x

therefore , x = 58 - 27 / 10

so , x = 31 / 10 = 3.1

so we will subtract 31 / 10 from 29 / 5 to get 27 / 10.
