Question
Find the difference of:
$\frac{13}{24}\text{ and }\frac{7}{16}$
$\frac{13}{24}\text{ and }\frac{7}{16}$
✓
Answer
We have,
$\frac{13}{24}\text{ and }\frac{7}{16}$
Taking out the LCM of 24 and 16, we get
2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 48
Now, we convert the given fractions to equivalent fractions by making the denominators 48
$=\frac{26}{48}-\frac{21}{48}$
$=\frac{36-21}{48}$
$=\frac{5}{48}$
$\frac{13}{24}\text{ and }\frac{7}{16}$
Taking out the LCM of 24 and 16, we get
2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 48
Now, we convert the given fractions to equivalent fractions by making the denominators 48
$=\frac{26}{48}-\frac{21}{48}$
$=\frac{36-21}{48}$
$=\frac{5}{48}$
