    Well we could start by making common denominators so we can subtract these two fractions.

    7/8 = 35/40

    2/5 = 16/40.

    35/40 = 16/40 = 19/40.

    19/40 = 0.475.

    So about 1? Not really, since it rounds down to 0.

    Close to 1? Not really, since it rounds down to 0.

    Exactly? No.
