Solution Steps

Step 1: Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD)

The LCD of 5 and 5 is 5.

Step 2: Convert each fraction to an equivalent fraction with the LCD

The first fraction becomes \( rac{21}{5}\) and the second fraction becomes \( rac{12}{5}\).

Step 3: Subtract the numerators and place the result over the LCD

The result of the subtraction is \( rac{9}{5}\).

Step 4: Simplify the resulting fraction

The result is already in its simplest form: \( rac{9}{5}\).

Final Answer:

The final answer is 1.8.
