Question

Stuart wants to find the value of 3 3/4 -2 1/3 Before Stuart can subtract, he needs to rewrite both fractions with a common denominator. Drag a number or expression into each box to show how to write equivalent fractions so the new fractions have a common denominator.

Answer 1

1 21/50

Explanation:

3 3/4 = (3/4 x 4/4) = 3 9/12

2 1/3 = (1/3 x 3/3) = 2 4/12

3 9/12 - 2 4/12 = 1 21/50
