3/5-1/3...to get the simple form of these unlike fractions ..u need to make them into like fractions by taking their LCM and making their denominators same ..and then subtract them if possible then reduce them 3/5 - 1/3
LCM of 3 and 5 =15 ..
=> 3/5 X3 =9/15
=>1/3 X 5= 5/15
9/15-5/15 =4/15
since 4 and 15 dont share any common factor other than 1 , the simplest form of 4/15 remains as it is ..

Hope it helps !!!

ANSWER: 4/15

To find the simple form of both fraction, the denominator (or bottom number) must be the same. So the first step is to look for the same denominator number. To do that, you must find the GCF (greatest common factor) which is 15. This how I get 15
5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45
3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 1842, 45
So basically, you need to see which number do they have the same. If the question have the same denominator, then you just need to subtract but since our GCF is 15 (it can be 45 too but if you put 45, there would be a lot of works)

So then that we found the GCF which is 15... the equation will be now...

3/5 x 3/3 = 9/15
(3 is suppose to be multipied by both #/# because we need to get 15 on the denominator. The same thing applied to the equation 1/3 but instead, it is multiplied by 5 because 5 x 3 is 15)
1/3 x 5/5 = 5/15

= 9/15 - 5/15 (You shound NEVER EVER SUBTRACT THE DEMONINATOR)
so you subtract 9-5

Final answer is 4/15

Answer from: Quest

pretty sure its b

step-by-step explanation:

why? because i noticed a pattern. 60 120. those numbers without the zero, make the 6 times tables leaving your answer to be b since 6 times 4 is 24 and adding a zero making it 240.

Name and describe the three most important measures of central tendency. choose the correct answer below. a. the mean, sample size, and mode are the most important measures of central tendency. the mean of a data set is the sum of the observations divided by the middle value in its ordered list. the sample size of a data set is the number of observations. the mode of a data set is its highest value in its ordered list. b. the sample size, median, and mode are the most important measures of central tendency. the sample size of a data set is the difference between the highest value and lowest value in its ordered list. the median of a data set is its most frequently occurring value. the mode of a data set is sum of the observations divided by the number of observations. c. the mean, median, and mode are the most important measures of central tendency. the mean of a data set is the product of the observations divided by the number of observations. the median of a data set is the lowest value in its ordered list. the mode of a data set is its least frequently occurring value. d. the mean, median, and mode are the most important measures of central tendency. the mean of a data set is its arithmetic average. the median of a data set is the middle value in its ordered list. the mode of a data set is its most frequently occurring value.
