Question

3 2/9 - 5= -3 1/5- 6,8=

Answer 1

$3 \frac{2}{9} - 5 = 3 \frac{2}{9} - 4 \frac{9}{9} = - 1 \frac{7}{9}$
$- 3 \frac{1}{5} - 6.8 = - 3.2 - 6.8 = - 10$

Answer 2

3 2/9-5=3 2/9-4 9/9 =-1 7/9

-3 1/5-6.8=-3-6,8=-10

Answer 3

Let's solve the equations step by step:

1. 3 2/9 - 5: To subtract a whole number and a mixed fraction, we first need to convert the whole number into a fraction. The whole number 5 can be written as 5/1.

Now, we have: 3 2/9 - 5 = 29/9 - 5/1

To subtract fractions, they should have the same denominator. So, we need to find a common denominator, which is 9 in this case:

3 2/9 - 5 = (29/9) - (45/9)

Now, subtract the fractions:

3 2/9 - 5 = (29 - 45)/9 = (-16)/9

The result is -16/9.

2. -3 1/5 - 6.8: To subtract a whole number and a decimal, let's first convert -3 1/5 to a mixed decimal. The fractional part is 1/5, which can be written as 0.2.

So, we have: -3 1/5 - 6.8 = -3.2 - 6.8

Now, subtract the decimals:

-3.2 - 6.8 = -10.0

The result is -10.0, which is equivalent to -10.
