Answer 2

Dissimilar fractions are subtracting by making denominators similar.

• Step 1: Determine the denominators' Lowest Common Multiple (LCM). To divide these fractions into the same number of pieces, the first step is to identify a common denominator. Multiply the denominators together to determine the lowest common denominator.
• Step 2: Multiply each fraction's numerator and denominator by a certain number so that the resultant denominator is the LCM.
• Step 3: Subtract the numerators while maintaining the same denominator so as to not change the denominator.
• Step 4: Convert the fraction into a mixed number if the answer is in the wrong form.
• Step 5: If the numbers are in proper fraction, the answer is derived and this is the final answer.
