(2)/(1)-(y)/(11) - subtraction of fractions

Solution for the given fractions

• 2/1 - y/11 = ?
• The common denominator of the two fractions is: 11
• 2/1 = (2*11)/(1*11) = 22/11
• y/11 = (1*y)/(1*11) = y/11
• Fractions adjusted to a common denominator
• 2/1 - y/11 = 22/11 - y/11
• 22/11 - y/11 = (22-y)/11
• (22-y)/11 = (22-y)/11

Solution for the given fractions

$ \frac{2}{1 }-\frac{ y}{11 }=? $

The common denominator of the two fractions is: 11

$ \frac{2}{1 }= \frac{(2*11)}{(1*11)} =\frac{ 22}{11} $

$ \frac{y}{11 }= \frac{(1*y)}{(1*11)} =\frac{ y}{11} $

Fractions adjusted to a common denominator

$ \frac{2}{1 }-\frac{ y}{11 }=\frac{ 22}{11 }-\frac{ y}{11} $

$ \frac{22}{11 }-\frac{ y}{11 }= \frac{(22-y)}{11} $

$ \frac{(22-y)}{11 }= \frac{(22-y)}{11} $
