How to subtract mixed numbers that have unlike denominators | Fractions | Pre-Algebra | Khan Academy

[@ServeMySoul777]

You’d be surprised at how many adults my age cannot add fractions. I was kind of a screw up in HS to put it nicely. I enrolled in the US MILITARY, and afterwards I went to college and it was only at this time in my life that I truly learned mathematics, well… at least up to calculus 3 anyways. Now I go above and beyond with my son because I don’t want him to be a screw up like his old man used to be in his youth. My point is that it’s never too late to learn. Thanks for reading my little random rant about my life. Have a great day everyone!

What about if the denominator is less than the numerator after subtracting with a common denominator?

Wow.

I remember using this website when I was in high school. I always hated it.

00:42 Whoa! This is where the magic happens! The moment you break down 6/9 - 2/5 into something manageable. Can’t believe how simplifying fractions can feel like solving a mystery 🔍📐!
