Ex: 2-(5/10) (or) 4-(6/22) (or) 5-(7/15)
Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 3/8 from Whole Number 8
The given input are 8 and 3/8
8 can be written as 8/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 8/1 and 3/8
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 8/1 and 3/8
8/1 - 3/8
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 - 3 x 1/8
= 64 - 3/8
= 61/8
Result: 61/8
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 61 ÷ 8 to get the Quotient and Remainder
61 divided by 8 using long division
The given Divisor = 8 and Dividend = 61
| 7 | ||
| 8 | 6 | 1 |
| 5 | 6 | |
| 5 |
The Quotient is 7 and the Remainder is 5
We get the Quotient = 7 and Remainder = 5
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 7 5/8
