(1/19) - (10) using LCM Method:
What is 1/19 minus 10 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/19
Fraction B: 10/1

What to be found?
(1/19) - (10) = ?
Find what's the difference between 1/19 and 10.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/19 and 10 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction subtraction. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/19 and 10 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions subtraction.

The LCM of 19 and 1 is 19.

step 4 Write the fractions 1/19 and 10 in the subtraction expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/19 - 10
= [(1 x 19)/(19 x 19)] - [(10 x 19)/(1 x 19)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 1/19 - 190/19

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/19 x (1/1 - 190/1)
= 1/19 x (1 - 190)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/19 x -189
= -189/19
1/19 - 10 = -189/19
