1/1 - 2/65 as a fraction

Learn how to find what is 1/1 minus 2/65 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 1/1 - 2/65 as a fraction and decimal.

Summary: 1/1 minus 2/65 = 63/65
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 1/1 minus 2/65 is an unlike fractions subtraction. For subtracting unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 1/1 and fraction 2/65 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 1 and 65. 65 is the LCM of 1 and 65. Multiplying the LCM 65 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (1/1 x 65/65) - (2/65 x 65/65), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 1/1 is 65/65 and for 2/65 is 2/65. By simplifying this fraction subtraction 65/65 - 2/65, it becomes 63/65.

The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find what is the difference between two fractions by subtracting a fraction 2/65 from 1/1. For different, unequal or unlike denominators, use any one of the following methods to find the equivalent fraction for 1/1 minus 2/65.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.

(1/1) - (2/65) using LCM Method:
What is 1/1 minus 2/65 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/1
Fraction B: 2/65

What to be found?
(1/1) - (2/65) = ?
Find what's the difference between 1/1 and 2/65.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/1 and 2/65 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction subtraction. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/1 and 2/65 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 1/1 and 2/65:
The LCM of 1 and 65 is 65.

step 4 Write the fractions 1/1 and 2/65 in the subtraction expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/1 - 2/65
= [(1 x 65)/(1 x 65)] - [(2 x 65)/(65 x 65)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 65/65 - 2/65

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/65 x (65/1 - 2/1)
= 1/65 x (65 - 2)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/65 x 63
= 63/65
1/1 - 2/65 = 63/65

Hence,
1/1 minus 2/65 as a fraction is 63/65.

1/1 - 2/65 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/1
Fraction B: 2/65

What to be found?
(1/1)-(2/65) = ?
Find what's the difference between 1/1 and 2/65.

step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (1 x 65), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (2 x 1), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (1 x 65) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (1 x 65) - (2 x 1)/(1 x 65)

step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (65 - 2)/65
1/1 - 2/65 = 63/65

Hence,
1/1 minus 2/65 in fraction is 63/65
