Find the difference:
$10-6\frac{3}{8}$
$10-6\frac{3}{8}$
✓
Answer
$10-6\frac{3}{8}$
$=\frac{10}{1}-\frac{51}{8}$
L.C.M of 1 and 8 = 8
$=\frac{(80-51)}{8}$
$=\frac{29}{8}$
$=3\frac{5}{8}$
$\Big(\frac{8}{1}=8,8\times10=80\Big)$
and $\Big(\frac{8}{8}=1,1\times51=51\Big)$
$=\frac{10}{1}-\frac{51}{8}$
L.C.M of 1 and 8 = 8
$=\frac{(80-51)}{8}$
$=\frac{29}{8}$
$=3\frac{5}{8}$
$\Big(\frac{8}{1}=8,8\times10=80\Big)$
and $\Big(\frac{8}{8}=1,1\times51=51\Big)$
