a, \(\frac{5}{6}-\left(\frac{2}{5}+\frac{1}{3}\right)\)
\(=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{2}{5}-\frac{1}{3}\)
\(=\frac{25}{30}-\frac{12}{30}-\frac{10}{30}\)
\(=\frac{3}{30}=\frac{1}{10}\)
b. \(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{6}\)
\(=\frac{3}{4}-\left(\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{6}\right)\)
\(=\frac{3}{4}-\frac{9}{18}\)
\(=\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{2}\)
\(=\frac{1}{4}\)
