Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 5/4 from Whole Number 7

The given input are 7 and 5/4

7 can be written as 7/1 in fraction format

The given fractions are 7/1 and 5/4

Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 7/1 and 5/4

7/1 - 5/4

The LCM of 1 and 4 (denominators of the fractions) is 4

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4


= 7 x 4 - 5 x 1/4

= 28 - 5/4

= 23/4

Result: 23/4

In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 23 ÷ 4 to get the Quotient and Remainder

23 divided by 4 using long division

The given Divisor = 4 and Dividend = 23

5
423
20
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 3/4
