Question

Subtract. Simplify if possible.

(2-v)/v-5-(3v-5)/5-v





Thank you all for all your help. It is gratefully appreciated.

Answer 1

You are still not using brackets in the proper way.

I am sure the divisor is (v-5), the way you have it only the v would be divided.

Let me assume you meant:

(2-v)/(v-5) - (3v-5)/(5-v)

= (2-v)/(v-5) + (3v - 5)/(v-5) , (I multiplied the last fraction by (-1)/(-1)
= (2v -3)/(v-5)
