Subtraction of heterogeneous
Therefore, the result of this subtraction of fractions is five eighths.
How to subtract unlike fractions:
Heterogeneous fractions are fractions that have different denominators.
To subtract heterogeneous fractions we follow these steps:
- We find the common denominator, which is the least common multiple of the denominators.
- We divide the common denominator by the other denominator and multiply by the numerator.
- We will write the above results as numerators with the subtraction sign between them.
- We subtract the numerators.
- We simplify the result if possible.
