Question

Explain how do we get 5/18 if you subtract 4/9-1/6
4/9- 1/6 = 5/ 18


Please I need this

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{5}{18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the data given in the question, we need to explain the process of subtraction of $\frac{4}{9}-\frac{1}{6}$

To subtract the given fractions, we need to find the LCM of denominators

LCM of $9,6=18$

Now,

By taking $18$ as denominator, we get

$\frac{8-3}{18}$

$=\frac{5}{18}$.

Answer 2

Given data,

If we subtract $\frac{4}{9} -\frac{1}{6}$ we get the answer as $\frac{5}{18}$

Now we have to show that how we get if we subtract $\frac{4}{9} -\frac{1}{6}$ the answer as $\frac{5}{18}$

Take the given fractions

$\frac{4}{9} -\frac{1}{6}$

In order to subtract them first we have to find the LCM of denominators.

LCM of $9,6$ is $18$

$\frac{4}{9} \times\frac{2}{2} -\frac{1}{6}\times\frac{3}{3}$

$\frac{8}{18} -\frac{3}{18}$

As we know $8-3$ is $5$

$\frac{5}{18}$

Therefore, If we subtract $\frac{4}{9} -\frac{1}{6}$ we get the answer as $\frac{5}{18}$
