Question

13/44-2/33=, 5/16-1/12=, 9/50-3/40=?

Answer 1

1) = 39/132-8/132=31/132
2)=15/48-4/48=11/48
3)=36/200-15/200=21/200

Answer 2

Let's solve each of these subtraction problems step by step:

1. 13/44 - 2/33:

To subtract fractions, you need to have a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 132, which is the least common multiple of 44 and 33. Now, you can rewrite the fractions with a common denominator:

(13/44) - (2/33) = (33/132) - (8/132)

Now that both fractions have the same denominator, you can subtract the numerators:

(33/132) - (8/132) = (33 - 8)/132 = 25/132

So, 13/44 - 2/33 = 25/132.

2. 5/16 - 1/12:

Again, you need a common denominator, which is 48 (the least common multiple of 16 and 12):

(5/16) - (1/12) = (15/48) - (4/48)

Now, subtract the numerators:

(15/48) - (4/48) = (15 - 4)/48 = 11/48

So, 5/16 - 1/12 = 11/48.

3. 9/50 - 3/40:

For this problem, find a common denominator, which is 200 (the least common multiple of 50 and 40):

(9/50) - (3/40) = (72/200) - (15/200)

Now, subtract the numerators:

(72/200) - (15/200) = (72 - 15)/200 = 57/200

So, 9/50 - 3/40 = 57/200.
