Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 20/50 from Whole Number 3

The given input are 3 and 20/50

3 can be written as 3/1 in fraction format

The given fractions are 3/1 and 20/50

Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 3/1 and 20/50

3/1 - 20/50

The LCM of 1 and 50 (denominators of the fractions) is 50

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 50


= 3 x 50 - 20 x 1/50

= 150 - 20/50

= 130/50

= 13/5

Result: 13/5

In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 13 ÷ 5 to get the Quotient and Remainder

13 divided by 5 using long division

The given Divisor = 5 and Dividend = 13

2
513
10
3

The Quotient is 2 and the Remainder is 3

We get the Quotient = 2 and Remainder = 3

∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator

Result: 2 3/5
