1-4/5=?
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(1 - \frac{4}{5}\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ 1 - \frac{4}{5} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2 \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{1}{1}\) and \(\frac{-4}{5}\) is \(5\). \[ \begin{aligned} 1 - \frac{4}{5} &= \frac{1 \cdot 5}{1 \cdot 5} + \frac{-4 \cdot 1}{5 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{5 + -4}{5} \\ &= \frac{1}{5} \end{aligned} \]
