Answer :

Hey there!

  • [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] [tex]-[/tex] [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
  • Change the "[tex]subtract[/tex]" symbol to a [tex]addition[/tex] symbol
  • [tex]\frac{2}{3} + \frac{-5}{8}[/tex]
  • [tex](-5)(3)[/tex] [tex]= -15[/tex]
  • [tex]2(8)[/tex] [tex]=16[/tex]
  • [tex]3[/tex][tex](8)[/tex] [tex]=[/tex] [tex]24[/tex]
  • [tex]\frac{16}{24} + \frac{-15}{24}[/tex]
  • Add "[tex]16 + (-15)[/tex]" together
  • [tex]\frac{16+ (-15)}{24}[/tex]
  • [tex]16 + (-15)[/tex] [tex]= 1[/tex]
  • [tex]24[/tex][tex]= 24[/tex]
  • Therefore, [tex]\boxed{Answer: \frac{1}{24} }[/tex]

Good luck on  your assignment and enjoy your day!
