[tex]\boxed{\text{Calculating the answer...}}\\\\8\frac{1}{5}-4 \frac{2}{5}\\-------------\\\text{Converting the mixed numbers into improper fractions...}\\\\\rightarrow 8\frac{1}{5} =\frac{41}{5}\\\\\rightarrow 4\frac{2}{5}=\frac{22}{5} \\-------------\\\frac{41}{5} -\frac{22}{5}\\\\\rightarrow\boxed{ \frac{19}{5}}\\-------------\\\\text{5 would go into 19 3 times with 4 as the remainder.}\\\\\frac{19}{5}=\boxed{3\frac{4}{5}}\\-------------\\\text{\textbf{Therefore:}}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]8\frac{1}{5}-4\frac{2}{5}=\boxed{3\frac{4}{5}}[/tex]
