Ex: 2-(5/10) (or) 4-(6/22) (or) 5-(7/15)
Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 4/7 from Whole Number 5
The given input are 5 and 4/7
5 can be written as 5/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 5/1 and 4/7
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 5/1 and 4/7
5/1 - 4/7
The LCM of 1 and 7 (denominators of the fractions) is 7
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7
= 5 x 7 - 4 x 1/7
= 35 - 4/7
= 31/7
Result: 31/7
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 31 ÷ 7 to get the Quotient and Remainder
31 divided by 7 using long division
The given Divisor = 7 and Dividend = 31
4 | ||
7 | 3 | 1 |
2 | 8 | |
3 |
The Quotient is 4 and the Remainder is 3
We get the Quotient = 4 and Remainder = 3
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 4 3/7
