The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find what is the difference between two fractions by subtracting a fraction 10/19 from 12/11. For different, unequal or unlike denominators, use any one of the following methods to find the equivalent fraction for 12/11 minus 10/19.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(12/11) - (10/19) using LCM Method:
What is 12/11 minus 10/19 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 12/11
Fraction B: 10/19
What to be found?
(12/11) - (10/19) = ?
Find what's the difference between 12/11 and 10/19.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 12/11 and 10/19 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction subtraction. Since the denominators of given fractions 12/11 and 10/19 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions subtraction.
step 3For unlike fractions subtraction, find the LCM (least common multiple) of both denominators of fractions 12/11 and 10/19:
The LCM of 11 and 19 is 209.
step 4 Write the fractions 12/11 and 10/19 in the subtraction expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 12/11 - 10/19
= [(12 x 209)/(11 x 209)] - [(10 x 209)/(19 x 209)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 228/209 - 110/209
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/209 x (228/1 - 110/1)
= 1/209 x (228 - 110)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/209 x 118
= 118/209
12/11 - 10/19 = 118/209
Hence,
12/11 minus 10/19 as a fraction is 118/209.
12/11 - 10/19 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 12/11
Fraction B: 10/19
What to be found?
(12/11)-(10/19) = ?
Find what's the difference between 12/11 and 10/19.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (12 x 19), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (10 x 11), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (11 x 19) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (12 x 19) - (10 x 11)/(11 x 19)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (228 - 110)/209
12/11 - 10/19 = 118/209
Hence,
12/11 minus 10/19 in fraction is 118/209
