5/6 -1/8 = 20/24 -3/24 = 17/24 . . . . reduced result

Using the <em>least common denominator</em> does not always result in a reduced sum or difference. If some other denominator is used (as here), then you can be assured that the result will need to be reduced to get to lowest terms.
There are, 20475 different groups are possible if the manager wants to select one group of 4 people from his 28 assistants.
<h3>What is permutation and combination?</h3>A permutation is the number of different ways a set can be organized; order matters in permutations, but not in combinations.
We have:
A manager wants to select one group of 4 people from his 28 assistants.
The total number of groups possible = C(28, 4)
After calculating:
= 20475
Thus, there are, 20475 different groups are possible if the manager wants to select one group of 4 people from his 28 assistants.
