Subtract Fraction 4/7 from Whole Number 6 and get the result i.e. 5 3/7 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 4/7 from Whole Number 6
The given input are 6 and 4/7
6 can be written as 6/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 6/1 and 4/7
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 6/1 and 4/7
6/1 - 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
= 6 x 7 - 4 x 1/7
= 42 - 4/7
= 38/7
Result: 38/7
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 38 ÷ 7 to get the Quotient and Remainder
38 divided by 7 using long division
The given Divisor = 7 and Dividend = 38
| 5 | ||
| 7 | 3 | 8 |
| 3 | 5 | |
| 3 |
The Quotient is 5 and the Remainder is 3
We get the Quotient = 5 and Remainder = 3
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 5 3/7
