2. Cross multiplication method.

(7/1) - (13/11) using LCM Method:
What is 7/1 minus 13/11 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 7/1
Fraction B: 13/11

What to be found?
(7/1) - (13/11) = ?
Find what's the difference between 7/1 and 13/11.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 7/1 and 13/11 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction subtraction. Since the denominators of given fractions 7/1 and 13/11 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 7/1 and 13/11:
The LCM of 1 and 11 is 11.

step 4 Write the fractions 7/1 and 13/11 in the subtraction expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 7/1 - 13/11
= [(7 x 11)/(1 x 11)] - [(13 x 11)/(11 x 11)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 77/11 - 13/11

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/11 x (77/1 - 13/1)
= 1/11 x (77 - 13)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/11 x 64
= 64/11
7/1 - 13/11 = 64/11

Hence,
7/1 minus 13/11 as a fraction is 64/11.
