Subtracting Fraction 1/2 from Whole Number 7
Subtract Fraction 1/2 from Whole Number 7 and get the result i.e. 6 1/2 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 1/2 from Whole Number 7
The given input are 7 and 1/2
7 can be written as 7/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 7/1 and 1/2
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 7/1 and 1/2
7/1 - 1/2
The LCM of 1 and 2 (denominators of the fractions) is 2
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2
= 7 x 2 - 1 x 1/2
= 14 - 1/2
= 13/2
Result: 13/2
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 13 ÷ 2 to get the Quotient and Remainder
13 divided by 2 using long division
The given Divisor = 2 and Dividend = 13
| 6 | ||
| 2 | 1 | 3 |
| 1 | 2 | |
| 1 |
The Quotient is 6 and the Remainder is 1
We get the Quotient = 6 and Remainder = 1
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 6 1/2
