12 and 1 half minus 3 and 5 6ths = 8 2/3
35/12
2/3
If you convert both numbers into 6ths it is easier to work out. 1 and 1/2 is 9/6ths and 2/3rds is 4/6ths. so, 9/6ths - 4/6ths = 5/6ths.
To express 5 6ths as twelfths, first convert 5 6ths into an improper fraction: (5 \frac{6}{6} = \frac{30}{6} + \frac{6}{6} = \frac{36}{6} = 6). Then, since 1 whole is equivalent to 12 twelfths, 6 can be expressed as (6 \times 12 = 72) twelfths. Therefore, there are 72 twelfths in 5 6ths.
