Question

$$\frac{ 12 }{ 5 } - \frac{ 2 }{ 5 }$$

Evaluate

$2$

Solution Steps

Since $\frac{12}{5}$ and $\frac{2}{5}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{12-2}{5}$$

Subtract $2$ from $12$ to get $10$.

$$\frac{10}{5}$$

Divide $10$ by $5$ to get $2$.

$$2$$

Factor

$2$
