Question

express each of the following in its lowest form .17/6-5/2

Answer 1

17/6-5/2

= 17-15 /6

= 2/6 = 1/3.

Answer 2

To make a fraction to it's lowest form you have to get it's LCM and divide it with it. But in this case where the LCM is not possible. You ask for undefinite lowest form means you are either foolish or making fun of this site.

Either way I will answer you question as a job.

First divide both numerator and denominator by a highest number.

I.e. 17/lowest no.

5/lowest no.

Now the answer you get in each, substract from each other.
