You have to convert your fractions so that they are all the same. In this case, we can use sixths. So two and three sixths (two and a half), minus one and four sixths (one and two thirds), would equal five sixths. Another way to do it is to convert the whole numbers to sixths as well. Fifteen sixths minus ten sixths equals five sixths.
5/3 minus 1/2 is 1 1/6
2 and 1 half!
2 minus one third is 1 and two thirds.
Six thirds is two. Two minus one half is one and a half. 2 - 0.5 - 1.5
1 half minus 11 thirds = -10
5 and 1/2- 1 and 2/3= 3 and 5/6.
2/3 can be converted to 4/6. So 4/6 - 1/6= 3/6 or 1/2
It is: 1/6 minus 2/3 = -1/2
2/3 minus 1/6 is 1/2
1 and four thirds
you changed the 1 into a fraction, so 1 turns into 3 thirds. then you can easily subtract from 1 thirds. Then the answer would be 2/3. Your Welcome! :)
-1 third
