Find the difference: (5/6) – (3/4)

Answer»

(5/6) – (3/4)

For subtraction of two unlike fractions, first change them to the like fractions.

LCM of 6, 4 = 12

Now, let us change each of the given fraction into an equivalent fraction having 12 as the denominator.

= [(5/6) × (2/2)] = (10/12)

= [(3/4) × (3/3)] = (9/12)

Now,

= (10/12)-(9/12)

= [(10 – 9)/12]

= (1/12)
