Answer 1

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

4/12 - 2/3

we want to take lcm if the denominator are not same .

lcm of 12 and 3 is 12

4/12 - 8/12

-4 / 12

Answer 2

• We have to evaluate the above expression by using the given data.

              Given data:- $\frac{4}{12} -\frac{2}{3} .$

              To find:- Value of the given expression.

              Solution:-

• We will take the LCM of the denominators, and make denominators the same.

• We will Convert the given fractions to equivalent fractions with the denominator as the LCM.

• Adding the numerators over the denominators.

        Therefore,

        $\begin{array}{l}\frac{4}{12}-\frac{2}{3} \\\\=\frac{4}{12}-\frac{2 \times 4}{3 \times 4} \\\\=\frac{4}{12}-\frac{8}{12} \\\\=\frac{4-8}{12} \\\\=\frac{-4}{12} \\\\=\frac{-4 \div 4}{12 \div 4} \\\\=-\frac{1}{3}\end{array}$

    Hence we will get the value is $\frac{4}{12} -\frac{2}{3} =-\frac{1}{3} .$
