7/12 - 3/12 = 1/3
Simplify each fraction if possible.
Same denominator? YES!
7 - 3 = 4
Since they have the same denominator, you just subtract the numerators.
Then simplify 4/12
4/4= 1 12/4= 3
Answer: 1/3

Explanation:
Set up two equations

x
+
2
y
=
54
x
×
y
=
176
Solving the first equation for x
2
x
+

y
−
2
y
=

−
2
y
this gives
2
x
=

Divide both sides by 2
(

This gives.
x
=

−
y
putting this value into the second equation gives.

y
=
176
multiplying across the parenthesis gives
27
y

subtracting 176 from both sides gives
is
