2. Cross multiplication method.

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

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

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

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

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

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 46/184 - 2/184

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/184 x (46/1 - 2/1)
= 1/184 x (46 - 2)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/184 x 44
= 44/184
= 11/46
2/8 - 1/92 = 11/46

Hence,
2/8 minus 1/92 as a fraction is 11/46.
