Learn how to find what is 2/9 minus 1/67 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 2/9 - 1/67 as a fraction and decimal.
Summary: 2/9 minus 1/67 = 125/603
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 2/9 minus 1/67 is an unlike fractions subtraction. For subtracting unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 2/9 and fraction 1/67 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 9 and 67. 603 is the LCM of 9 and 67. Multiplying the LCM 603 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (2/9 x 603/603) - (1/67 x 603/603), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 2/9 is 134/603 and for 1/67 is 9/603. By simplifying this fraction subtraction 134/603 - 9/603, it becomes 125/603.

The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find what is the difference between two fractions by subtracting a fraction 1/67 from 2/9. For different, unequal or unlike denominators, use any one of the following methods to find the equivalent fraction for 2/9 minus 1/67.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.
(2/9) - (1/67) using LCM Method:
What is 2/9 minus 1/67 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/9
Fraction B: 1/67
What to be found?
(2/9) - (1/67) = ?
Find what's the difference between 2/9 and 1/67.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/9 and 1/67 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction subtraction. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/9 and 1/67 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 2/9 and 1/67:
The LCM of 9 and 67 is 603.
step 4 Write the fractions 2/9 and 1/67 in the subtraction expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/9 - 1/67
= [(2 x 603)/(9 x 603)] - [(1 x 603)/(67 x 603)]
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 134/603 - 9/603
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/603 x (134/1 - 9/1)
= 1/603 x (134 - 9)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/603 x 125
= 125/603
2/9 - 1/67 = 125/603
Hence,
2/9 minus 1/67 as a fraction is 125/603.
2/9 - 1/67 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/9
Fraction B: 1/67
What to be found?
(2/9)-(1/67) = ?
Find what's the difference between 2/9 and 1/67.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (2 x 67), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (1 x 9), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (9 x 67) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (2 x 67) - (1 x 9)/(9 x 67)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (134 - 9)/603
2/9 - 1/67 = 125/603
Hence,
2/9 minus 1/67 in fraction is 125/603
