Solve 4-2/5-2-3/5

$$4 - \frac { 2 } { 5 } - 2 - \frac { 3 } { 5 }$$

Evaluate

$$1$$

Solution Steps

Convert 4 to fraction \frac{20}{5}.

$$\frac{20}{5}-\frac{2}{5}-2-\frac{3}{5}$$

Since \frac{20}{5} and \frac{2}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{20-2}{5}-2-\frac{3}{5}$$

Subtract 2 from 20 to get 18.

$$\frac{18}{5}-2-\frac{3}{5}$$

Convert 2 to fraction \frac{10}{5}.

$$\frac{18}{5}-\frac{10}{5}-\frac{3}{5}$$

Since \frac{18}{5} and \frac{10}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{18-10}{5}-\frac{3}{5}$$

Subtract 10 from 18 to get 8.

$$\frac{8}{5}-\frac{3}{5}$$

Since \frac{8}{5} and \frac{3}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{8-3}{5}$$

Subtract 3 from 8 to get 5.

$$\frac{5}{5}$$

Divide 5 by 5 to get 1.
