Answer: 2 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the denominators are different, and there are whole numbers involved, then first make the fractions improper.
4 1/2 -> 9/2
6 2/3 -> 20/3
Next, make the denominators the same by multiplying each fraction by the denominator of the other.
9/2 * 3 = 27/6
20/3 * 2 = 40/6
Then you can subtract the numerators because the denominators are the same:
40/6-27/6= 13/6
Then you can convert to a mixed fraction if need be.
