What is 3 1/8 - 1/2

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

$\frac{21}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $3\frac{1}{8} - \frac{1}{2}$

Let's changed that mixed number to an improper fraction. Now we get:

$\frac{25}{8} - \frac{1}{2}$

Let's find out least common denominator. This one is easy, the LCD is 8. Now that we know the LCD, let's convert both our fractions:

$\frac{25}{8} - \frac{4}{8}$

We can use $\frac{4}{8}$ because it is equal to $\frac{1}{2}$ . Now, all we need to do is subtract the numerators:

$\frac{25}{8} - \frac{4}{8}=\frac{21}{8}$
