    1 3/40

    Step-by-step explanation:

    2 3/8 - 1 3/10

    = 2 - 1 3/8 - 3/10

    = 1 15-12/40

    = 1 3/40

    OR

    2 3/8 - 1 3/10

    Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions

    = 19/8 - 13/10

    Find the LCM of the denominators

    (LCM = 40)

    = 95 - 52 / 40

    =43/40

    = 1 3/40
