Ex: 2-(5/10) (or) 4-(6/22) (or) 5-(7/15)
Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 8/6 from Whole Number 7
The given input are 7 and 8/6
7 can be written as 7/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 7/1 and 8/6
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 7/1 and 8/6
7/1 - 8/6
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
= 7 x 6 - 8 x 1/6
= 42 - 8/6
= 34/6
= 17/3
Result: 17/3
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 17 ÷ 3 to get the Quotient and Remainder
17 divided by 3 using long division
The given Divisor = 3 and Dividend = 17
| 5 | ||
| 3 | 1 | 7 |
| 1 | 5 | |
| 2 |
The Quotient is 5 and the Remainder is 2
We get the Quotient = 5 and Remainder = 2
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 5 2/3
