2. Cross multiplication method.

(1/7) - (2/93) using LCM Method:
What is 1/7 minus 2/93 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/7
Fraction B: 2/93

What to be found?
(1/7) - (2/93) = ?
Find what's the difference between 1/7 and 2/93.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/7 and 2/93 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction subtraction. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/7 and 2/93 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 1/7 and 2/93:
The LCM of 7 and 93 is 651.

step 4 Write the fractions 1/7 and 2/93 in the subtraction expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/7 - 2/93
= [(1 x 651)/(7 x 651)] - [(2 x 651)/(93 x 651)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 93/651 - 14/651

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/651 x (93/1 - 14/1)
= 1/651 x (93 - 14)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/651 x 79
= 79/651
1/7 - 2/93 = 79/651

Hence,
1/7 minus 2/93 as a fraction is 79/651.
