Question
Find the difference of:$\frac{13}{24}$ and $\frac{7}{16}$
✓
Answer
$\frac{13}{24}-\frac{7}{16}$ $=\frac{13\times2}{24\times2}-\frac{7\times3}{16\times3}$
$=\frac{26}{48}-\frac{21}{48}$ $($because $LCM$ of $24$ and $16$ is $48)$
$=\frac{26-21}{48}$
$=\frac{5}{48}$
$=\frac{26}{48}-\frac{21}{48}$ $($because $LCM$ of $24$ and $16$ is $48)$
$=\frac{26-21}{48}$
$=\frac{5}{48}$
