Question

Mohit cut 3 2/3 m from 17 1/2 m long rope. How much rope is left with him?

Answer 1

Answer:

83/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Rope Mohit had in total: 17 1/2 (35/2)

Convert into improper fraction: 2×17+1= 35/2

Rope Mohit cut: 3 2/3 (11/3)

Covert into improper fraction: 3×3+2= 11/3

Rope Mohit is left with: Subtract both the Fractions:

Step 1: Convert into like fractions

LCM of 2 and 3- 6

35/2: 2×3=6 and 35×3= 105= 105/6

11/3: 3×2=6 and 11×2=22= 22/6

Like fractions: 105/6 and 22/6

Subtract the like fractions: 105/6-22/6= 83/6

Hence, 83/6 rope is left with Mohit
