Explanation:

If the equation is as follows:


(3)/(7) - (4)/(21)

We simply need to make the denominator the same for both, now as 7 is a factor of 21 ( 21 รท 7 = 3) we simply need to multiply
(3)/(7) by 3:


(3)/(7) =
(4)/(21)

Now we can minus the two:


(9)/(21) -
(4)/(21)

9 - 4 = 5, so the answer is
(5)/(21)


Hope this helps!
