1in a half = 1/2
2 and 5/6 is in its simplest form.
5/6 is already in the simplest form!
Expressed as a proper fraction in its simplest form, 3/6 is equal to 1/2 or one half.
15/4 x 2/3 = 30/12= 5/2 = 2 and 1/2
That can be reduced to 11 and 1/3 or 34/3
5/6ths
If you convert both numbers into 6ths it is easier to work out. 1 and 1/2 is 9/6ths and 2/3rds is 4/6ths. so, 9/6ths - 4/6ths = 5/6ths.
3/7 is in its simplest form.
18 12ths= 9 6ths= 3 halves or 3 over 2= 1.5
1/3 is the simplest form.1/3 is the simplest form.1/3 is the simplest form.1/3 is the simplest form.
3/6 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6 5 6ths is your answer
You have to find the common denominator for the fractions, so multiply the "half" (2) by the "thirds" (3). These two numbers multiplied with give 6 as a common denominator. Then multiply the 1 by the 3, which will give 3/6ths, and the 2 by the other 2, which will give 4/6ths. Hmmm! it seems that 4/6ths is greater than 3/6ths, so you have to add a whole to the 3/6ths to make a big enough fraction to subtract. Doing that will give you 9/6ths and you can subtract the 4/6ths. So the answer would be 5/6ths. Try it.
