28/36 Divide by the GCD (greatest common denominator) 28/4=7 36/4=9 Final answer=7/9
The lowest common denominator is 1/4 x 1/9 = 1/36. 1/4 = 36/4x1 x 1/36 = 9/36 7/9 = 36/9x7 x 1/36 = 28/36 28/36 - 9/36 = 21/36 = 7/12
To subtract fractions with different denominators, first find a common denominator. In this case, the least common multiple of 9 and 4 is 36. Convert both fractions to have a denominator of 36, then subtract the numerators. 7/9 becomes 28/36 and 3/4 becomes 27/36. Therefore, 7/9 - 3/4 is equal to 28/36 - 27/36, which simplifies to 1/36.

To give a number in its simplest form, you need to identify any common divisors between the denominator and numerator. In this case, both 36 and 28 divide by 4. If we do this, we get 9/7. 9 and 7 have no common factors, and so 36/28 in its simplest form is 9/7.
28 = 36 x 7/9 = 36/9 x 7 = 4 x 7
To compare fractions, we need to have a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator for 9, 4, and 12 is 36. Converting the fractions to have a denominator of 36, we get 20/36, 27/36, and 21/36. Therefore, in order from least to greatest: 5/9, 7/12, 3/4.
