Thanks Gr but your answer is too difficult for anyone, who would ask this question, to understand.

4/5+1/2-1/3

You cannot add or subtract fractions unless the bottoms are the same.

The bottoms (denominators) are 5, 2, and 3

What is the smallest number that can be divided by all of these?

5*6=30

2*15=30

3*10=30

so all the fractions can be changed to something over 30.

$$\frac{4}{5}*\frac{6}{6}=\frac{24}{30}$$

Now do the other 2 yourself and then the answer will be  24-what you get for 1/2 +what you get for 1/3all over 30.

Namjin I have just looked at your record.

You have not given any answers any point.

You have however taken points off a polite post looking at the problem of cheats on our forum.

What you do here is public and you are being judged with every action and inaction that you do.

If you are not here to learn then go away.

If your attitude does not improve you will be banned.
