Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 6/8 from Whole Number 7

The given input are 7 and 6/8

7 can be written as 7/1 in fraction format

The given fractions are 7/1 and 6/8

Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 7/1 and 6/8

7/1 - 6/8

The LCM of 1 and 8 (denominators of the fractions) is 8

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8


= 7 x 8 - 6 x 1/8

= 56 - 6/8

= 50/8

= 25/4

Result: 25/4

In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 25 ÷ 4 to get the Quotient and Remainder

25 divided by 4 using long division

The given Divisor = 4 and Dividend = 25

6
425
24
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 1/4
