Question 97

Subtract $\frac{1}{6}from\frac{1}{2}$.

Answer 1

As per the question

We have to subtract $\frac{1}{6}$ from $\frac{1}{2}$.

We need to find $\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{6}$. They are unlike fractions because their denominators are different.

The LCM of 2 and 6 is 6.

$\therefore \frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1\times 3-1\times 1}{6}=\frac{2}{6}$
