The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find what is the difference between two fractions by subtracting a fraction 2/92 from 1/8. For different, unequal or unlike denominators, use any one of the following methods to find the equivalent fraction for 1/8 minus 2/92.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.

(1/8) - (2/92) using LCM Method:
What is 1/8 minus 2/92 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/8
Fraction B: 2/92

What to be found?
(1/8) - (2/92) = ?
Find what's the difference between 1/8 and 2/92.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/8 and 2/92 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction subtraction. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/8 and 2/92 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 1/8 and 2/92:
The LCM of 8 and 92 is 184.

step 4 Write the fractions 1/8 and 2/92 in the subtraction expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 1/8 - 2/92
= [(1 x 184)/(8 x 184)] - [(2 x 184)/(92 x 184)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 23/184 - 4/184

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/184 x (23/1 - 4/1)
= 1/184 x (23 - 4)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/184 x 19
= 19/184
1/8 - 2/92 = 19/184

Hence,
1/8 minus 2/92 as a fraction is 19/184.
