Question

the difference between 5/6 and 2/12​

Answer 1

Answer:

So we multiply 5 by 12, and get 60. Then we multiply 2 by 6, and get 12. Next we give both terms new denominators -- 6 × 12 = 72

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can't subtract two fractions with different denominators. So you need to get a common denominator. To do this, you'll multiply the denominators times each other... but the numerators have to change, too. They get multiplied by the other term's denominator.

So we multiply 5 by 12, and get 60.

Then we multiply 2 by 6, and get 12.

Next we give both terms new denominators -- 6 × 12 = 72.

So now our fractions look like this :

60/72 - 12/72

Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.

60 − 12 = 48

So the answer is:

48/72
