Ex: 2-(5/10) (or) 4-(6/22) (or) 5-(7/15)
Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 3/6 from Whole Number 8
The given input are 8 and 3/6
8 can be written as 8/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 8/1 and 3/6
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 8/1 and 3/6
8/1 - 3/6
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
= 8 x 6 - 3 x 1/6
= 48 - 3/6
= 45/6
= 15/2
Result: 15/2
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 15 ÷ 2 to get the Quotient and Remainder
15 divided by 2 using long division
The given Divisor = 2 and Dividend = 15
7 | ||
2 | 1 | 5 |
1 | 4 | |
1 |
The Quotient is 7 and the Remainder is 1
We get the Quotient = 7 and Remainder = 1
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 7 1/2
