2/3-3/4 using LCM Method:
What is 2/3 minus 3/4 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/3
Fraction B: 3/4

What to be found?
2/3-3/4 = ?
Find what's the difference between 2/3 and 3/4.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/3 and 3/4 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction subtraction. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/3 and 3/4 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 2/3 and 3/4:
The LCM of 3 and 4 is 12.

step 4 Write the fractions 2/3 and 3/4 in the subtraction expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=2/3-3/4
=(2 x 12)/(3 x 12)-(3 x 12)/(4 x 12)

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=8/12-9/12

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/12 x (8/1-9/1)
=1/12 x (8 - 9)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/12 x -1
=-1/12
2/3-3/4=-1/12

Hence,
2/3 minus 3/4 equals to -1/12 in fraction.
