he fact that they are improper is irrelevant. Re-scale the fractions so that they have the same denominator and thenadd or subtract as required.
Turn the proper fraction into an improper fraction.
You need to learn how to convert from improper fractions to mixed fractions and vice versa; however, for most other operations, such as compare, add, subtract, multiply, and divide them, it really doesn't make much difference whether the fraction is proper or improper.
The easiest is to convert both mixed form numbers to improper fractions, do the subtraction (as normal1) and if the result is an improper fraction convert it to mixed form. 1 by converting the improper fractions to equivalent [improper] fractions with a common denominator and subtracting the resultant numerators.
Convert them to improper fractions with common denominators and proceed normally.

Convert them to improper fractions and proceed.
Turn the proper fraction into an improper fraction.
Convert them to improper fractions with a common denominator.
To add or subtract mixed numbers, first convert them to improper fractions. Then, perform the addition or subtraction operation on the numerators while keeping the denominators the same. Next, simplify the resulting fraction if possible by reducing it to lowest terms. Finally, if needed, convert the improper fraction back to a mixed number for the final answer.

Subtracting a mixed number is just subtracting fractions but with a whole number by a fraction. To subtract tun the mixed numbers into improper fractions and find the common denominator. Then you subtract the numerators.
You need common denominators. Then add or subtract the numerators. If the answer is an improper fraction it is common practice to reduce it to a mixed number.
Make them into improper fractions, find the least common denominator, convert them, subtract, reduce if possible.
Express the mixed fraction as an improper fraction and then proceed as you would with ordinary fractions. If the answer is an improper fraction, then remember to convert to a mixed fraction.
