Answer 1

Question↓

5/6 – 6/12

Answer:

The Correct Answer is $\frac{4}{12}$ *But we can reduce the Number to $\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to get a common denominator. To do this, you'll multiply the denominators times each other... but the numerators have to change, too. They get multiplied by the other term's denominator.

Hope this Helps!

Answer 2

First, we must find the common denominator (12)            ✵

10/12-6/12            ✵                 ✵                              ✵                              ✵

Now, why 10?                                     ✵                   ✵                      ✵

Because we CAN'T just take the denominator and change it; we must change both the denominator AND the numerator:

✵                                      •          -                                      ○          

4/12                  ✧                             ✩                                  ✶            ✺         ✱  

We can simplify, or reduce, this fraction:                  ✱  ✱

1/3              ✩                              ✦                                        ✤

I hope it helps!
