Answer 2

Given:

$3 \frac{5}{6} - 8 \frac{1}{3}$

To find:

Subtraction.

Solve:

$3 \frac{5}{6} = \frac{23}{6}$

$8 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{25}{3}$

As you can see the denominators ate not same. So, we have to same the denominators. Take LCM of denominators.

LCM is 6.

Now;

$\frac{23 \times1}{6 \times 1} = \frac{23}{6}$

$\frac{25 \times 2}{3 \times 2} = \frac{50}{6}$

Now all the denominators ate same.

$\frac{50 - 23}{6} = \frac{27}{6}$

$\frac{27}{6} = \frac{9}{2}$

Hence, the answer is 9/2
