Question

Q18 What must be
subteracted
from 9 whole 1/6
to get 6 whole 1/9?​

Answer 1

Answer:

9 1/6 = 55/6

6 1/9 = 55/9

Equation -

55/6 - x = 55/9

x = 55/9 - 55/6

LCM of 9 and 6 = 18

55/9 = 55 x 2/ 9 x 2 = 110/18

55/6 = 55 x 3/ 6 x 3 = 165/18

Therefore -

x = 110/18 - 165/18 = -55/18

So, x = -55/18
