Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
18 9/11 - 8 3/8
First, we need to convert these fractions to improper fraction,
(18 * 11 + 9 / 11) - (8 * 8 + 3 / 8)
=> 207 / 11 - 67 / 8
Next, we need to find the LCM, the LCM of 8 and 11 = 88 (This is because 8 and 11 share no common factors other than 1, so the LCM will be the product of the 2 numbers)
=> (207 * 8) / (11 * 8) - (67 * 11) / (8 * 11)
=> 1656 / 88 - 737 / 88
So, then we just need to subtract the numerators to get the answer,
=> (1656 - 737) / 88
=> 919 / 88
Now, let us return it to the mixed fraction form,
=> 10 39/88
