Solve and simplify. 10/15 − 5/15

Answer 1

To solve this expression, we can subtract the numerators of the fractions and keep the common denominator:

10/15 - 5/15 = (10-5)/15 = 5/15

To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (which is 5):

5/15 = (5 ÷ 5)/(15 ÷ 5) = 1/3

So, the simplified form of the expression is 1/3.
