How to subtract fractions with mixed numbers and different denominators


Asked by admin @ in Mathematics viewed by 289 People


Explain how adding and subtracting mixed numbers is different from adding and subtracting fractions

Answered by admin @



Well mixed numbers are numbers that consists of a integer or proper fraction and a fraction is not a whole numbers.

So... adding or subtracting mixed numbers would most likely provide an whole number while fractions remain fractions when you add or subtract them.

Hope this helps!
