Question

Let’s find 1/4-1/8, First, write the subtraction so the fractions have denominator 8. Then subtract.

Answer 1

Answer:

The subtraction of the given fractional expression is $\frac{1}{8}$

Therefore $\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given fractional expression is $\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}$

To find the subtraction of the given fractional expression as below :

Subtracting the given fractions

$\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}$

$=\frac{\frac{1\times 8}{4}-1}{8}$

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

$=\frac{1}{8}$

$\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{8}$

Therefore the subtraction of the given fractional expression is $\frac{1}{8}$

Therefore $\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{8}$
