Answer 2

• We have to evaluate the above expression by using the given data.

              Given data:- $\frac{14}{8} -\frac{2}{8} .$

              To find:- Value of the given expression.

              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.

• Subtract the numerators over the denominators.

        Therefore,

        $\begin{array}{l}\frac{14}{8}-\frac{2}{8} \\\\=\frac{14-2}{8} \\\\=\frac{12}{8} \\\\=\frac{3}{2}\end{array}$

       Hence we will get the value $\frac{14}{8} -\frac{2}{8} =\frac{3}{2} .$
