Subtracting Mixed Numbers

In Previous section we have discussed about lowest common denominator
and In today's session we are going to discuss about Subtracting Mixed Numbers, All the mathematical operators can be performed on the mixed fraction numbers by converting them in the form of improper fraction numbers.  In order to learn Subtracting Mixed Numbers, we will learn about the conversion of the mixed fraction into improper fraction.  We need to check that the fractions are like fractions or not. Now in case the two improper fractions are like fractions, then we say that the difference between the numerators will be take and the same denominator will be placed as the denominator of the answer. Now in case the two improper fractions are unlike, whose difference is to be calculated, then we say that we will first convert the two improper fraction numbers into the like fractions. For this we will find the LCM of the two denominators and we will make the denominator of the two fraction numbers equal to the LCM of the two numbers.
Thus in this way we will get the denominator of the two fractions same and thus we can now find the difference of the two fraction numbers. Finally when we get the fraction between the two fraction numbers, we will check that the fraction so received will be a proper fraction or improper fraction. If in case we find it as a proper fraction, then we will convert it to its standard form. In case we get the result in form of the improper fraction, we will convert it in the form of the mixed fraction. SO  we will first recognize the  question and then we proceed for  the solution of the  difference of the  two  mixed fraction numbers. Algebra worksheets will help you to get confidence before entering into examination hall. To know about the Syllabus For Class 8th Cbse, we visit online portal and get  the  support  to know the syllabus of  all the subjects.
