This is a multiplication problem.

You multiply 8/10 by 1/3 (of means multiply!) and you get 8/30.

Teagan Padilla · Answer 2

First you have to turn 8/10 and 1/3 into equivalent fractions. 8/10 turns into 24/30 and 1/3 turns into 10/30. 24/30 minus 10/30 equals 14/30. After u simplify 14/30 you get 7/15.

Your answer is 7/15
