After subtracting both fractions, you will get [tex]\frac{29}{24}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
These are mixed fractions
3 [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex]
2 [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
Convert these into improper fractions
To find the numerator, multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator.
The denominator remains the same.
1. So for, 3 [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex]
Improper fraction: [tex]\frac{43}{12}[/tex]
2. For 2 [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
Improper fraction: [tex]\frac{19}{8}[/tex]
3. Now subtract both the fractions
[tex]\frac{43}{12}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{19}{8}[/tex]
LCM is 24. Multiply first fraction by [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex] and second fraction by [tex]\frac{3}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{43*2}{12*2}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{19*3}{8*3}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{29}{24}[/tex]
Therefore, after subtracting both fractions, you will get [tex]\frac{29}{24}[/tex]
