​

Answer 1

$\green{ \huge \tt36 \frac{ \: 5 \: }{ \: 8 \: } } \huge{ \: \gray- \: } \green{ \huge \tt24 \frac{ \: 5 \: }{ \: 12 \: }}$

• Making the above mixed fraction as improper fractions --

$\huge \to \: \: \sf{ \frac{293}{8} } \gray {- }\frac{293}{12}$

• Taking LCM of denominators, which is obtained as 24

$\huge \to \sf \: \frac{879 - 586}{24} \\ \\ \huge \to \: \: \sf \frac{293}{24} \\ \\ \huge \to \: \: \sf \red{ 12 \frac{5}{24} }$
