Answer:
Subtract:
2/3 - 1/2 = 2/3 • 2/2 - 1/2 • 3/3 = 4/6 - 3/6 = 4-3/6 = 1/6
For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(3, 2) = 6. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 3 × 2 = 6. In the next intermediate step the fraction result cannot be further simplified by cancelling.
In words - two thirds minus one half = one sixth.
Hope this helps
you eat 2/8=1/4 of pizza
1 - 1/4 = 3/4 leftover
Step-by-step explanation:
1st
8x-59 + 2x-11 = 180
10x -70 = 180
10x = 180 + 70
10x = 250
x = 25
2nd
8x - 59 = 15y + 6
8(25) -59 = 15y + 6
200 -59 = 15y + 6
141 = 15y + 6
15y + 6 = 141
15y = 141 - 6
15y = 135
y = 135/15
y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:
Humans have made use of natural numbers as long as humans have been around. Counting numbers are wired into our consciousness, as they are for many living things.
Research has demonstrated some plants can count up to 5 (generally, carnivorous ones). Honeybees have long been known to be able to count to 4, and recent research shows they can count higher. Fish can count; birds can count; as can many other species.
For most, it takes concentration and/or training to count beyond 4. We are born with an understanding of 1, 2, 3, more.
Nobody "invented" natural numbers.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Prey species survive by being able to count predators. Some predators take advantage of the limitations of number recognition by hunting in groups larger than can be readily counted.
