To get the answer, you first find a common denominator between the two fractions and you come up with 20, so you then make sure that whatever you do to the denominator, must be done to the numerator, and you come up with the fractions, 14 and 2/20; 9 and 15/20. Since 2/20 is smaller than 15/20, you borrow from the 14, and get 13 and 22/20. When you subtract the two fractions, you get 7/20.You finally subract the two numbers in order to get your answer. The final answer is 4 and 7/20. I hope that this explanation will help you.
