I woukd still consider that as long cut,if you wan't a short just follow this way: 4-⅔=? 3 ³/³-⅔=3 ⅓ Take out 1 from whole number,then figured out what is the denominator of the fraction,use that as numerator and denominator,then subtract
The 4 at the start changes into 4/1, which is the same as 4 but now as a fraction. It is then multiplied by 3/3 to get 12/3. This is still 4 as 12/3=4. But 12/3 than allows us to solve the problem by subtracting it by the 2/3 to get 10/3, our answer, or 3 and 1/3 as a mixed number. Hope this helps 😊
I havena question if the first fraction’s (fraction on the left) numerator for example like 4 and then the second fraction (Fraction on the right) with a numerator of 6,how would we subtract it? Like would the numerater for the answer become a negative or can we just switch the places? Like 6 - 4 and answer would be 2. Or 4 - 6, andwer would be -2
You subtract from left to right, so it would be the numerator of the fraction on the left minus the numerator of the fraction on the right, assuming the *denominators are the same * :)**
Hi, I do have a video on that! Just search 'how to multiply fractions piece of pi'. If you ever need to learn something, just type what it is into youtube followed by 'piece of pi' (my channel name), so you can see if I have done a video on it. 😊
