Subtract Fraction 4/6 from Whole Number 6 and get the result i.e. 5 1/3 taking help of Number Minus Fraction Calculator along with detailed work.
Ex: 2-(5/10) (or) 4-(6/22) (or) 5-(7/15)
Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 4/6 from Whole Number 6
The given input are 6 and 4/6
6 can be written as 6/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 6/1 and 4/6
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 6/1 and 4/6
6/1 - 4/6
The LCM of 1 and 6 (denominators of the fractions) is 6
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6
= 6 x 6 - 4 x 1/6
= 36 - 4/6
= 32/6
= 16/3
Result: 16/3
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 16 ÷ 3 to get the Quotient and Remainder
16 divided by 3 using long division
The given Divisor = 3 and Dividend = 16
| 5 | ||
| 3 | 1 | 6 |
| 1 | 5 | |
| 1 |
The Quotient is 5 and the Remainder is 1
We get the Quotient = 5 and Remainder = 1
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 5 1/3
