Question

what should subtracted from (3/2)-(2/3) to get (-1/6)?

Answer 1

ATQ, let no. must be subtracted = x

so, 3/2 - 2/3 - x = -1/6
1.5 - 0.66 - x = -1/6
0.84 - x = -1/6
x = -1/6 + 0.84
x = 0.68
so thats the no. we must subtract

Answer 2

Solve the bracket (3/2-2/3)

Lcm=6

Make it like fractions

So 3/2 will become=3×3/2×3=9/6

And -2/3 will be= -2×2/3×2= -4/6

Now we have like fractions,that is 9/6 & -4/6

Solving 9/6-4/6 will be=5/6

Now as per the question

Let the no be x

So 5/6-x= -1/6

-x= -1/6-5/6

-x= -6/6

x=6/6

=1

Checking answer

5/6-1

Lcm=6

-1= -6/6

So 5/6-6/6

= -1/6
