Question

Find the difference:
$3 \ \frac{1}{7} - 2 \ \frac{1}{7}$
​

Answer 1

Given:

• $\sf{A\:number\:3\dfrac{1}{7}}$
• $\sf{A\:number\:2\dfrac{1}{7}}$

To Find:

• Difference of the two numbers.

Concept Used:

• We will first covert numbers from mixed fraction to improper like fractions.
• Next,we will subtract the two like fractions.

Answer:

We have been given two numbers as ,

=$\sf{3\dfrac{1}{7}-2\dfrac{1}{7}}$

=$\sf{\dfrac{7\times3+1}{7}-\dfrac{7\times2+1}{7}}$

=$\sf{\dfrac{22}{7}-\dfrac{15}{7}}$

=$\sf{\dfrac{22-15}{7}}$

=$\sf{\dfrac{7}{7}}$

=$\sf{\cancel{\dfrac{7}{7}}}$

=${\underline{\red{\bf{1}}}}$

Therefore the required answer is 1.
