Is there a way to set 10-(5/3) in one fraction

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-07-11] [Hit: ]
multiply the numerator and denominator both by 3, as 1 (denominator) times 3=3= the other fractions denominator.10*3= 30,Rewrite it: (30/3)-(5/3). Much simpler.Subtract numerators; leave denominators alone since they are the same.......
Cuz (10/1)-(5/3) are, obviously, two fractions.

10 = 30/3

30/3 - 5/3 = 25/3

The easiest way to do this is to make 10/1 and 5/3 with the same denominators. Let's make 10/1 with a denominator of 3. To do this, multiply the numerator and denominator both by 3, as 1 (denominator) times 3=3= the other fraction's denominator.

10*3= 30, so your new fraction is 30/3

Rewrite it: (30/3)-(5/3). Much simpler.

Subtract numerators; leave denominators alone since they are the same.

*The answer is 25/3, as 30-5 is 25. Hope I helped! :)

You can also convert each fraction into a decimal, then subtract, then convert your decimal answer into a fraction.
