Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 3/5 from Whole Number 23
The given input are 23 and 3/5
23 can be written as 23/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 23/1 and 3/5
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 23/1 and 3/5
23/1 - 3/5
The LCM of 1 and 5 (denominators of the fractions) is 5
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5
= 23 x 5 - 3 x 1/5
= 115 - 3/5
= 112/5
Result: 112/5
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 112 ÷ 5 to get the Quotient and Remainder
112 divided by 5 using long division
The given Divisor = 5 and Dividend = 112
| 2 | 2 | ||
| 5 | 1 | 1 | 2 |
| 1 | 0 | ||
| 1 | 2 | ||
| 1 | 0 | ||
| 2 |
The Quotient is 22 and the Remainder is 2
We get the Quotient = 22 and Remainder = 2
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 22 2/5
