Convert to like fractions (denominator 30):
9 2/15 = 9 + 4/30 = 9 4/30
5 3/10 = 5 + 9/30 = 5 9/30
Subtract: (9 4/30) − (5 9/30). Borrow 1 from 9:
8 + 34/30 − 5 9/30 = 3 + (34/30 − 9/30) = 3 + 25/30.
Simplify 25/30 = 5/6, so the result is 3 5/6.
Answer: d. 3 5/6
9 2/15 = 9 + 4/30 = 9 4/30
5 3/10 = 5 + 9/30 = 5 9/30
Subtract: (9 4/30) − (5 9/30). Borrow 1 from 9:
8 + 34/30 − 5 9/30 = 3 + (34/30 − 9/30) = 3 + 25/30.
Simplify 25/30 = 5/6, so the result is 3 5/6.
Answer: d. 3 5/6
