Question

What should be subtract from (3/4+1/3+2/3 to get 1/2?​

Answer 1

• Let the required number be x

$\small\bold\star\underline\red{Solution:-}$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: ( \frac{3}{4} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} ) - x = \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ = = > (\frac{9 + 4 + 8}{12}) - x = \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ = = > \: x = \frac{21}{12} - \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ = = > x = \frac{15}{12} = \frac{5}{4}$

• Hence, $\frac{5}{4}$ should be subtract from ($\frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{1}{3}$ + $\frac{2}{3}$ ) to get $\frac{1}{2}$.
