Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 3/48 from Whole Number 3

The given input are 3 and 3/48

3 can be written as 3/1 in fraction format

The given fractions are 3/1 and 3/48

The given Divisor = 16 and Dividend = 47

2
1647
32
15

The Quotient is 2 and the Remainder is 15

We get the Quotient = 2 and Remainder = 15

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

Result: 2 15/16
