Question

Subtract 3 over 4 minus 1 fourth.

  1. 1 fourth
  2. 2 over 4
  3. 3 over 4
  4. 1

hintHint:

In this question we have to subtract two fractions for that we have to make denominator same this can be done by taking LCM. LCM is the least common multiple of two integers. We will use the prime factorization method to find the LCM. In prime factorization method the simply put the factor of each number and then for LCM we take product of factors, but we consider the repeated factors only one time with the highest exponent. But in this question the fractions are like fractions so we don't need to take LCM.

The correct answer is: 2 over 4


    3 over 4 space minus space 1 fourth
2 over 4 space
    Step1: Since the fractions are like fractions we just simply need to subtract as normal subtraciton.
    fraction numerator 3 minus 1 over denominator 4 end fraction space equals space 2 over 4 equals 1 half

    Make use of area model to determine the value of 441  ÷ 21.

    We know that division is repetitive subtraction. So, we can subtract 21 from 441 again and again till we reach 0.
