Q. Subtract. Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.\newline1225−715=12\frac{2}{5} - 7\frac{1}{5} = _____
  1. Convert to Improper Fractions: Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions.\newline1225=(12×5+2)/5=62512 \frac{2}{5} = (12\times 5 + 2)/5 = \frac{62}{5}\newline715=(7×5+1)/5=3657 \frac{1}{5} = (7\times 5 + 1)/5 = \frac{36}{5}
  2. Subtract Fractions: Subtract the improper fractions. 625−365=62−365=265\frac{62}{5} - \frac{36}{5} = \frac{62 - 36}{5} = \frac{26}{5}
  3. Convert to Mixed Number: Convert the result back to a mixed number. 265=515\frac{26}{5} = 5 \frac{1}{5}
