Answer:
11/12
Explanation:
Hello! The answer to this question is 11/12. In this case, we want to make the denominator the same. To make the denominator the same we need to find the lowest common multiple. In this case the lowest common multiple is 12, (because 12 is the smallest number that 3 and 4 are both factors for.) 4x3=12 so now the denominator in 5/4 is 12 but whatever we do the bottom we do to the top. So since we multiplied the bottom (denominator) by 3 we have to multiply the top (numerator) by 3 as well. 5x3=15. Therefore, we now changed 5/4 to 15/12. Now, we have to do the same to the 1/3. 3x4= 12. 1x4=4. Now we have the two numbers, 15/12 and 4/12. 15/12-4/12=11/12! Therefore, your answer is 11/12. Hope this explanation helps! Happy learning!
