Question

what should be subtracted from 13 3/6 to get 3 37/48?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$13\frac{3}{6} - x = 3\frac{37}{48}$

$x= 13\frac{3}{6} - 3\frac{37}{48} \\\\x = \frac{81}{6} - \frac{181}{48}$

L.C.M of 6 and 48 is 48 as 6*8 and 48*1 both equal 48.

Now to make them like fractions,

$x= \frac{81*8}{6*8} - \frac{181*1}{48*1}\\ \\ = \frac{648-181}{48} = \frac{467}{48}$

Now to simplify this answer,

$9\frac{35}{48}$  is the answer
