First, change it so that the two fractions have the same denominator (by changing the fractions into equivalent fractions). Once the two fractions have the same denominator, it is simply a case of subtracting the numerators, leaving the denominator the same. Finally, reduce the fraction to its lowest terms (if possible).
So what? You treat it the same as you would a number.
It means that the previous fraction was not in its lowest terms.
The same numerator as which numerator and the same denominator as which denominator?
An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.
The terms of a fraction are 'Numerator' and 'Denominator.' The numerator is the number atop the dividing line, the denominator is that on the bottom. For example, in 5/7, five is the numerator, and seven is the denominator.
No, it is already in lowest terms - the numerator and denominator cannot be divided bya same number
You multiply the denominator by the whole number, then add the numerator of the original fraction to get the numerator of your new fraction. The denominator stays the same as the original. Then you simplify into lowest terms.

Equivalent fractions are formed by multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the same integer

The answer depends on what the denominator has to be the same as!
