Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 8/7 from Whole Number 7
The given input are 7 and 8/7
7 can be written as 7/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 7/1 and 8/7
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 7/1 and 8/7
7/1 - 8/7
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
= 7 x 7 - 8 x 1/7
= 49 - 8/7
= 41/7
Result: 41/7
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 41 ÷ 7 to get the Quotient and Remainder
41 divided by 7 using long division
The given Divisor = 7 and Dividend = 41
| 5 | ||
| 7 | 4 | 1 |
| 3 | 5 | |
| 6 |
The Quotient is 5 and the Remainder is 6
We get the Quotient = 5 and Remainder = 6
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 5 6/7
