Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions. If the fractions have the same denominator, you subtract the numerators. If the fractions have different denominators, you have to convert to a common denominator first.Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions.

By finding the lowest common denominator of the fractions.
by finding the common denominator of the fractions
You first need to find a common denominator, not necessarily the least common denominator. Next, you rename the fractions according to the common denominator. Only then can you subtract the fractions. After subtraction you should simplify the answer.
The numerator of the answer is the result of subtracting the numerators of the fractions, and the denominator of the fraction is the same as the common denominator.

it stay the same when you subtract fractions and when you add fractions.
You need a common denominator in order to add or subtract fractions.
Just subtract the numerators and copy the denominator

You first convert them to similar fractions, i.e., to fractions that have the same denominator.* Step one: find a common denominator.* Step two: convert both fractions to equivalent fractions that have that denominator.
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.
Yes.
You can add or subtract fractions only if they are "like" fractions, that is, only if they have the same denominator - unless you know your fractions really well.
