Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 2/8 from Whole Number 8

The given input are 8 and 2/8

8 can be written as 8/1 in fraction format

The given fractions are 8/1 and 2/8

Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 8/1 and 2/8

8/1 - 2/8

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


= 8 x 8 - 2 x 1/8

= 64 - 2/8

= 62/8

= 31/4

Result: 31/4

In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 31 ÷ 4 to get the Quotient and Remainder

31 divided by 4 using long division

The given Divisor = 4 and Dividend = 31

7
431
28
3

The Quotient is 7 and the Remainder is 3

We get the Quotient = 7 and Remainder = 3

∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator

Result: 7 3/4
