Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 6/9 from Whole Number 5

The given input are 5 and 6/9

5 can be written as 5/1 in fraction format

The given fractions are 5/1 and 6/9

Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 5/1 and 6/9

5/1 - 6/9

The LCM of 1 and 9 (denominators of the fractions) is 9

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9


= 5 x 9 - 6 x 1/9

= 45 - 6/9

= 39/9

= 13/3

Result: 13/3

In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 13 ÷ 3 to get the Quotient and Remainder

13 divided by 3 using long division

The given Divisor = 3 and Dividend = 13

4
313
12
1

The Quotient is 4 and the Remainder is 1

We get the Quotient = 4 and Remainder = 1

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

Result: 4 1/3
