5/6 minus 7/12 is 1/4.
5/12 - 6/12 = -1/12
5/6
3/5 - 5/12 = 36/60 - 25/60 = 11/60
3/8=0.38 5/12 = 0.42 0.38-0.42=-0.04
10/12 - 5/12 = 5/12Five sixths is ten twelfths. So ten twelfths subtract five twelfths is five twelfths.If you mean 5/6 minus 5/12 then it is the same as 10/12 minus 5/12 = 5/12
Four and five twelfths is 53 twelfths, five and eleven twelfths is 71 twelfths so answer is "minus eighteen twelfths", ie -1½ or -1.5
5/6 minus 7/12 is 1/4.
Five-twelfths or 5/12
5/12 - 6/12 = -1/12
five twelfths 1/6 = 2/12 7/12 - 2/12 = 5/12
Expressed as a mixed number in its simplest form, 8 5/12 - 5 3/12 = 3 1/6 or three and one sixth.
5/6
3/5 - 5/12 = 36/60 - 25/60 = 11/60
It is -345/12
Expressed as a mixed number in its simplest form, 5 1/3 - 2 11/12 = 2 5/12 or two and five twelfths.
You change five sixths into ten twelfths and three quarters into nine twelfths. Then you subtract the nine twelfths from the ten twelfths, which equals one twelfth.
