Answer 1

Answer:

If you want to find the difference between any two numbers say a and b. Then please see the number which is greater and then subtract the smaller number by it.

So please try to understand the concept because concept is power.

Let's start your question:-

( 1 ). 5/8 - 1/8

Step-1 Simply subtract the smaller number by greater number.

Here -1/8 is Greater than 5/8

So, subtract -1/8 - 5/8 = -3/4 is the difference between two numbers.

So please do rest of the questions yourself to understand the concept more clearly.

I hope you understand it.

Thanks

Answer 2

$1.) \: \: \: \frac{5}{8} - \frac{1}{8} \: \: \to \frac{5 - 1}{8} \: \: \to \red{\frac{4}{8}} \: \: {\sf{or} }\: \: \red{\frac{1}{2} }$

$4.) \: \: \frac{5}{6} - \frac{4}{9} \: \: \to \frac{15 - 8}{18} \: \: \to \red{ \frac{7}{18} }$

$7.) \: \: 2 \frac{7}{9} - 1 \frac{8}{15} \\ \\ \: \: \to \frac{25}{9} - \frac{23}{15} \\ \\ \: \: \to \frac{125 - 69}{45} \: = \red{ \frac{56}{45} }$

$10.) \: \: \: 6 \frac{2}{3} - 3 \frac{3}{4} \: \: \to \frac{20}{3} - \frac{15}{4} \\ \\ \: \: \to \frac{80 - 45}{12} \: = \red{\frac{35}{12} }$
