Answer

710\frac{7}{10}

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Simplify the expression inside the parentheses.

    To add the fractions 130\frac{1}{30} and 415\frac{4}{15}, find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 30 and 15 is 30.
    Convert 415\frac{4}{15} to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 30:

    415=4×215×2=830\frac{4}{15} = \frac{4 \times 2}{15 \times 2} = \frac{8}{30}
  2. Add the fractions inside the parentheses.

    130+830=1+830=930\frac{1}{30} + \frac{8}{30} = \frac{1+8}{30} = \frac{9}{30}
  3. Simplify the resulting fraction.

    930=9÷330÷3=310\frac{9}{30} = \frac{9 \div 3}{30 \div 3} = \frac{3}{10}
  4. Substitute the simplified fraction back into the original expression and subtract from 1.

    1−3101 - \frac{3}{10}

    To subtract, express 1 as a fraction with a denominator of 10:

    1010−310=10−310=710\frac{10}{10} - \frac{3}{10} = \frac{10-3}{10} = \frac{7}{10}

    The final answer is 710\frac{7}{10}.
