Step-by-step explanation: To subtract mixed numbers, first subtract the fractions.

Notice here however that we have 3/6 - 5/6

which will give us a negative fraction.

Since this will cause us a lot of trouble, instead,

let's rewrite the first mixed number.

We can do this by thinking of 4 and 3/6 as 3 + 1 and 3/6

or 3 + 9/6 by changing 1 and 3/6 to an improper fraction.

So 4 and 3/6 can be written as 3 and 9/6.

So we have 3 and 9/6 - 2 and 5/6.

Now subtract the fractions.

9/6 - 5/6 is 4/6.

So we have 1 and 4/6 or 1 and 2/3.

As an improper fraction, the answer is 5/3.

Answer:

1  2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominators are the same, so we have to borrow from the 4

Borrow  1 in the form 6/6

3 + 6/6+3/6  - 2 5/6

3 9/6   - 2 5/6

1 4/6

Simplify the fraction by dividing the top and bottom by 2

1  2/3
