I assume you mean subtracting a fraction from another fraction. In this case, you need to multiply both the top and bottom number by another number so both fractions have the same bottom number. Then you can subtract the top numbers and simplify if needed. (ex. 7/8 - 1/2 = ? ...... 7/8 - 1/2(4/4) = ? ...... 7/8 - 4/8 = 3/8) If you can't just multiply one of fractions to get the same bottom number as the other fraction, multiply them both by different numbers until you get the same bottom number. (ex. You could use the same equation as in the first example, but make the bottom number 16 instead, just as an example..... 7/8 - 1/2 = ? ...... 7/8(2/2) - 1/2(8/8) = ? ...... 14/16 - 8/16 = 6/16 ...... Simplify 6/16: 6/16 take 2 out of top and bottom both = 3/8).

Why does the sun's outshine other stars?
It is closer to us than the other stars so we get a much, much larger fraction of its light compared to other stars. The other stars are so far away that even stars that are much brighter than our sun can only transmit such a small fraction of their light that the tiny fraction we get is consequently much less than the larger fraction of our somewhat dimmer sun.

For example, in a fraction like 2.534, there are 3 decimals after the point; in this case, take the point away, and divide by 1000 (a one with 3 zeroes). The result is 2534 / 1000.For example, in a fraction like 2.534, there are 3 decimals after the point; in this case, take the point away, and divide by 1000 (a one with 3 zeroes).
