If someone has $1.25 and they spend $0.25 they have $1 left
a quarter :)
one quarter 1/2 - 1/4 = 1/4 1/2 = 2/4 so 2/4 - 1/4 = 1/4 as 2 - 1 = 1
To subtract one quarter from seven eighths, first convert one quarter to eighths. One quarter is equal to two eighths. Therefore, seven eighths minus two eighths equals five eighths. So, seven eighths minus one quarter equals five eighths.
When you are using non-standard definitions of "plus" and "minus", or of "equal".
1 minus 1/2 minus 1/3 is equal to 0.166667
Five and a quarter minus two and a quarter is equal to 5 1/4 - 2 1/4 = 3.

-1 multiplied by -1 is 1
1 minus 1/2 minus 1/3 is equal to 0.166667
