Question

What is the answer to the factor equation of 12 1/3 subtract 5 2/3

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to the factor expression is $\frac{20}{3}$

Therefore $12\frac{1}{3}-5\frac{2}{3}=\frac{20}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the factor expression is  $12\frac{1}{3}-5\frac{2}{3}$

Now convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction as below :

$12\frac{1}{3}-5\frac{2}{3}=\frac{37}{3}-\frac{17}{3}$

$=\frac{37-17}{3}$

$=\frac{20}{3}$

Therefore $12\frac{1}{3}-5\frac{2}{3}=\frac{20}{3}$

The answer to the factor expression is $\frac{20}{3}$
