Question

Can someone break down the basics/steps of subtracting mixed number fractions?

Answer 1

Mixed numbers

Explanation:

So you have to make the mixed number then change the denominator to be the same so

for example:

25/15 - 4/3

4/3 times 5

so 4/3 is equal to 20/15

so 25/15 - 20/15 = 5/15

simplify to 1/3
