Question

I’m so confused I don’t know how to subtract fractions. What is 2+2-1 2/3

Answer 1

2
`(1)/(3)`

Explanation:

To subtract fractions you convert the whole numbers into fractions.

2 + 2 = 4

4 - 1
`(2)/(3)`

We can convert 4 to
`(12)/(3)`because 12 divided by 3 equals 4. We can convert

1
`(2)/(3)` to
`(5)/(3)` because 5 divided by 3 equals 1
`(2)/(3)`

We can now subtract our converted fractions:

`(12)/(3)` minus
`(5)/(3)` =
`(7)/(3)`

So our answer is 7/3.

This simplifies to:

2
`(1)/(3)`

Answer 2

its 7/3 or you could put 2 1/3
