Question

how to find the lcd and subtract the following fractions what is the answer of 5 over 6 minus 1 over 4 pls

Answer 1

Explanation:

This calculator subtracts two fractions. First, convert all fractions to a common denominator when fractions have different denominators

Answer 2

`\displaystyle (7)/(12)`

Explanation:

When we are subtracting fractions with different denominators, we find the least common denominator of each one. In the case of 6 and 4, they both share 12 as the least common denominator, so we can rewrite each fraction as equivalents with denominators of 12:

`\displaystyle (5)/(6)-(1)/(4)=(5*2)/(6*2)-(1*3)/(4*3)=(10)/(12)-(3)/(12)=(7)/(12)`
