Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 4/7 from Whole Number 8

The given input are 8 and 4/7

8 can be written as 8/1 in fraction format

The given fractions are 8/1 and 4/7

Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 8/1 and 4/7

8/1 - 4/7

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


= 8 x 7 - 4 x 1/7

= 56 - 4/7

= 52/7

Result: 52/7

In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 52 ÷ 7 to get the Quotient and Remainder

52 divided by 7 using long division

The given Divisor = 7 and Dividend = 52

7
752
49
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 3/7
