5/6 - 1/5
Subtraction of fractions.
Step 1 ; Form improper fractions ( not required in this case).
Step 2 ; Bring both denominators to the same value , and the numerators to equivalent values.
Hence
[5(5) - 1(6)] / ( 5 x 6)
[ 25 - 6] / 30
Step 3; subtract the numerators
[19] /30
Step 4 ; Cancel down if possible ( not possible in this case)
Step 5; Convert to a mixed number ( not required in this case).
Hence the answer is 19/30
NB For addition of fractions go through the same steps. Except at Step 3, you ADD the numerators.
NNB Multiplication and division of fractions require different techniques.
