Answer:

7/20 mile farther

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 2/5 mile from 3/4 mile results in the distance you still have to walk:

3/4 - 2/5 = ?

Here the LCD is 20.  Thus, 3/4 becomes 15/20 and 2/5 becomes 8/20.

Then 3/4  - 2/5 = 15/20 - 8/20, or 7/20.

You still have 7/20 mile to walk to get home.
