what is my answer to 16\15- 2\3

Answer 1

16..........2...........16..........10............16 - 10.............6............2

---- - ------ = ------- - -------- = ------------ = ------- = ------

15..........3...........15..........15...............15................15...........5

So, 16/15 - 2/3 = 2/5.

THE ANSWER IS 2/5.

2/3 = 10/15 3 goes into 15 5 times, and 5 times 2 equals 10.

6/15 can be reduced or simplified by dividing 6 by 3, and 15 by 3.

6/3 = 2

----

15/3 = 5

Then, 6/15 = 2/5

Hope this helped Jamya J.
