Question

Subtract:

$\frac{3}{7}$ from $0$

Answer 1

We know when we convert $0$ in standard form it will become $\frac{0}{1}$ .

LCM (least common multiple) of $7$ and $1$ is $7$.

Now convert the given fractions in equivalent fraction with denominator $7$.

$\Rightarrow \frac{3\times 1}{7\times 1}=\frac{3}{7}$ and $\frac{0\times 7}{1\times 7}=\frac{0}{7}$

So, $\frac{0}{7}-\frac{3}{7}$

$$\begin{gathered} =\frac{0-3}{7} \\ =\frac{-3}{7} \end{gathered}$$

Hence, $0-\frac{3}{7}=\frac{-3}{7}$
