Answer
\[\frac{37}{60}\].
Work Step by Step
As no grouping symbol is there, perform the subtraction operation as follows:
\[\begin{align}
& \frac{19}{24}-\frac{7}{40}=\frac{\left( 19\times 5 \right)-\left( 7\times 3 \right)}{120} \\
& =\frac{\left( 95 \right)-\left( 21 \right)}{120} \\
& =\frac{74}{120} \\
& =\frac{37}{60}
\end{align}\]
Hence, the value of the provided expression is\[\frac{37}{60}\].
