Answer 1

Answer:

option D

Step-by-step explanation:

• Convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction.
• As denominators are different, find the LCM of denominators.
• Find equivalent fractions using the LCM
• Now subtract and then convert improper fraction to mixed fraction.

$\sf 5\dfrac{3}{6}=\dfrac{33}{6}\\\\2\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{7}{3}$

LCM of  6 , 3 = 6

$\sf \dfrac{33}{6}-\dfrac{7}{3}=\dfrac{33}{6}-\dfrac{7*2}{3*2}$

           $\sf =\dfrac{33}{6}-\dfrac{14}{6}\\\\=\dfrac{33-14}{6}\\\\= \dfrac{19*3}{6*3=\dfrac{57}{18}}\\\\=3\dfrac{3}{18}$
