Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] or [tex]\frac{140}{420}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

put all your numbers over 420 to make them look like fractions:

[tex]\frac{420}{420}      

\frac{280}{420}[/tex]

subtract as normal and simplify if necessary:[tex]\frac{420}{420} -\frac{280}{420} =\frac{140}{420}  \\      or              \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
