Question

Subtract 5/4 from 1/3

Answer 1

Answer:

We will get the value of $\frac{1}{3}-\frac{5}{4} =-\frac{11}{12}.$

Step-by-step explanation:

• As per the question we have to evaluate the given data.

         Given data:- $\frac{1}{3} -\frac{5}{4} .$

         To find:- Value of $\frac{1}{3} -\frac{5}{4} .$

         Solution:-

• We will take the LCM of the denominators, and make denominators the same.

• We will Convert the given fractions to equivalent fractions with the denominator as the LCM.

• Adding the numerators over the denominators.

        Therefore,

         $\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{3}-\frac{5}{4} \\\\=\frac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4}-\frac{5 \times 3}{4 \times 3} \\\\=\frac{4}{12}-\frac{15}{12} \\\\=\frac{4-15}{12} \\\\=-\frac{11}{12}\end{array}$

    The question will be to find the value of $\frac{1}{3} -\frac{5}{4} .$
