Solution finding the Subtraction of Fraction 8/3 from Whole Number 9

The given input are 9 and 8/3

9 can be written as 9/1 in fraction format

The given fractions are 9/1 and 8/3

Firstly the L.C.M should be done for the denominators of the two fractions 9/1 and 8/3

9/1 - 8/3

The LCM of 1 and 3 (denominators of the fractions) is 3

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3


= 9 x 3 - 8 x 1/3

= 27 - 8/3

= 19/3

Result: 19/3

In order to get the Mixed Number,we need to divide 19 ÷ 3 to get the Quotient and Remainder

19 divided by 3 using long division

The given Divisor = 3 and Dividend = 19

6
319
18
1

The Quotient is 6 and the Remainder is 1

We get the Quotient = 6 and Remainder = 1

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

Result: 6 1/3
