Hello,

in order to minus fractions, you may decrease the numerator or increase the denominator or both.

Hi there! Let's say I had to subtract 6/10 from 5/10. We would subtract 6 from 5 which is 1 and we leave the denominator the same which is 10. Therefore, we have a fraction of 1/10.

$\bf y=sec(\sqrt{x})\implies y=sec\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\stackrel{\textit{chain rule}}{sec\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)tan\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)\cdot \cfrac{1}{2}x^{-\frac{1}{2}}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{dy}{dx}=sec\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)tan\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)\cdot \cfrac{1}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{sec\left( \sqrt{x} \right)tan\left( \sqrt{x} \right)}{2\sqrt{x}}$
