Answer:

option D

Explanation:

  • Convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction.
  • As denominators are different, find the LCM of denominators.
  • Find equivalent fractions using the LCM
  • Now subtract and then convert improper fraction to mixed fraction.


\sf 5(3)/(6)=(33)/(6)\\\\2(1)/(3)=(7)/(3)

LCM of 6 , 3 = 6


\sf (33)/(6)-(7)/(3)=(33)/(6)-(7*2)/(3*2)\\


\sf =(33)/(6)-(14)/(6)\\\\=(33-14)/(6)\\\\= (19*3)/(6*3=(57)/(18))\\\\=3(3)/(18)
