Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 6/5 from Whole Number 5

The given input are 5 and 6/5

5 can be written as 5/1 in fraction format

The given fractions are 5/1 and 6/5

Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 5/1 and 6/5

5/1 - 6/5

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


= 5 x 5 - 6 x 1/5

= 25 - 6/5

= 19/5

Result: 19/5

In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 19 ÷ 5 to get the Quotient and Remainder

19 divided by 5 using long division

The given Divisor = 5 and Dividend = 19

3
519
15
4

The Quotient is 3 and the Remainder is 4

We get the Quotient = 3 and Remainder = 4

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

Result: 3 4/5
