3 - 1.25 = 1.75
A quarter is equivalent to 1/4. To subtract one third (1/3) from a quarter, you need a common denominator. The common denominator for 4 and 3 is 12. Thus, 1/4 becomes 3/12 and 1/3 becomes 4/12, so 3/12 - 4/12 equals -1/12. Therefore, a quarter minus one third is -1/12.
To find one third minus one quarter, you first need a common denominator, which is 12. One third is equivalent to 4/12, and one quarter is equivalent to 3/12. Subtracting these gives you 4/12 - 3/12 = 1/12. Thus, one third take away one quarter equals 1/12.
1 as a whole consists of 4 quarters, when you subtract 3 quarters you'll be left with 1 quarter. 1 - (3/4) = 1/4
three-fourths or 3/4 is 1-1/4 or in words, one minus one fourth equals three-fourths, think in terms of a dollar, one dollar is 4 quarters, minus one quarter leaves you with three-quarters.
(2/5) - (1/4) = (8/20) - (5/20) = 3/20
One quarter and a half
Five and a quarter minus two and a quarter is equal to 5 1/4 - 2 1/4 = 3.
3/4
3/4 - 1/2 = 1/4 or one quarter.
A quarter is equivalent to 1/4. To subtract one third (1/3) from a quarter, you need a common denominator. The common denominator for 4 and 3 is 12. Thus, 1/4 becomes 3/12 and 1/3 becomes 4/12, so 3/12 - 4/12 equals -1/12. Therefore, a quarter minus one third is -1/12.
Expressed as a proper fraction in its simplest form, 1/3 - 1/4 = 1/12 or one twelfth.
To find one third minus one quarter, you first need a common denominator, which is 12. One third is equivalent to 4/12, and one quarter is equivalent to 3/12. Subtracting these gives you 4/12 - 3/12 = 1/12. Thus, one third take away one quarter equals 1/12.

(2/5) - (1/4) = (8/20) - (5/20) = 3/20
1 minus 1/2 minus 1/3 is equal to 0.166667
3/4 - 1/4 = 2/4 = 1/2
