Subtract Fraction 9/2 from Whole Number 8 and get the result i.e. 3 1/2 taking help of Number Minus Fraction Calculator along with detailed work.
Ex: 2-(5/10) (or) 4-(6/22) (or) 5-(7/15)
Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 9/2 from Whole Number 8
The given input are 8 and 9/2
8 can be written as 8/1 in fraction format
The given fractions are 8/1 and 9/2
Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 8/1 and 9/2
8/1 - 9/2
The LCM of 1 and 2 (denominators of the fractions) is 2
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2
= 8 x 2 - 9 x 1/2
= 16 - 9/2
= 7/2
Result: 7/2
In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 7 ÷ 2 to get the Quotient and Remainder
7 divided by 2 using long division
The given Divisor = 2 and Dividend = 7
3 | |
2 | 7 |
6 | |
1 |
The Quotient is 3 and the Remainder is 1
We get the Quotient = 3 and Remainder = 1
∵ The Mixed-Fraction can be written as QuotientRemainder/Denominator
Result: 3 1/2
