Questions: 6 1/6 - 3 5/6 =

Solution Steps

Convert \( 6 \frac{1}{6} \) and \( 3 \frac{5}{6} \) to improper fractions: \[ 6 \frac{1}{6} = \frac{6 \times 6 + 1}{6} = \frac{37}{6} \] \[ 3 \frac{5}{6} = \frac{3 \times 6 + 5}{6} = \frac{23}{6} \]

Subtract the two fractions: \[ \frac{37}{6} - \frac{23}{6} = \frac{37 - 23}{6} = \frac{14}{6} \]

Simplify \( \frac{14}{6} \) by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2: \[ \frac{14}{6} = \frac{7}{3} \]
