How do you subtract fractions

Mathematics

RUDIKE [14]3 years ago

Step-by-step explanation:

Make sure the denominators (thats the bottom number) are the same!! This is very important!! For example, if you are subtracting 3/10 from 1/2 you are going to multiply 1/2 by 5 (because 2×5 is 10) and get 5/10. Now, what you are going to do is subtract 4 from 5 and get 1/10. I hope this helped!

Heres a couple videos for extra help

make the denominators ( bottom number ) the same and whatever u do to that do to the top

Step-by-step explanation:

make the common denominator 6

to get from 2 to 6 u times by 3 so it wud be 3/6

3/6 take away 2/6 is 1/6

If it takes 16 yards of material to make 5/2 costumes, how much material will be needed to make 19/2 costumes of that same size?
IRISSAK [1]

yards/costumes:16/(5/2) = X/(19/2)

Cross multiply.

(5/2)x = 152

Multiply both sides by 2/5.

x = 101 1/3 yards

You are cycling around Europe with friends.
Dmitrij [34]

Options are:

Impossible

Certain

Likely

Unlikely

Answer:

Unlikely

Step-by-step explanation:

A ferry is a large ship that carries passengers and loads on water.

A ferry rarely sinks. Infact, the United States experience very low cases of shipwreck yearly. According to wikipedia in 2018, not more than 200 shipwrecks happened all over the world compared to a great number of operations that year.

Therefore, based on statistics, the ferry is unlikely to sink.
