Question

3 and 1/3 minus 2 and 5/6

Answer 1

`3(1)/(3)-2(5)/(6)`

Find the common denominator

LCM(3, 6) = 6

`3(1)/(3)=3(1\cdot2)/(3\cdot2)=\3(2)/(6)\\\\3(1)/(3)-2(5)/(6)=3(2)/(6)-2(5)/(6)=2(6+2)/(6)-2(5)/(6)=2(8)/(6)-2(5)/(6)=(2-2)+\left((8)/(6)-(5)/(6)\right)\\\\=(8-5)/(6)=(3)/(6)=(3:3)/(6:3)=\boxed{(1)/(2)}`
