Answer 1

You have the following expression:

`2(1)/(6)-1(3)/(6)`

In order to calculate the previous difference, first express the mixed number as normal fraction, just as follow:

`\begin{gathered} 2(1)/(6)=(2)/(1)+(1)/(6)=(12+1)/(6)=(13)/(6) \\ 1(3)/(6)=(1)/(1)+(3)/(6)=(6+3)/(6)=(9)/(6) \end{gathered}`

Next, subtract the previous fractions:

`(13)/(6)-(9)/(6)=(13-9)/(6)=(4)/(6)`

Hence, the subtraction of the given fraction is equal to 4/6
