[tex]\tt\green{ Explanation: }[/tex]

____________________________________________

To subtract the whole number from a fraction..

The whole number must be converted to a fraction...

Ex. of whole number :

[tex]\tt\green{ 3- \frac{5}{8} }[/tex] ____________________________________________

The whole number is 3.

So the whole number will be 3/1

[tex]3 - \frac{5}{8} \tt\green{ = \frac{3}{1} - \frac{5}{8} }[/tex]

Next step is find the LCD (Least common Denominator)

The least common denominator of 8 and 1 is 8

____________________________________________

[tex]\tt\green{ \frac{3}{1} - \frac{5}{8} = \frac{24}{8} - \frac{5}{8} = \frac{19}{8} / 2 \frac{3}{8} }[/tex]

Then 8 devided by 1 multiply by 3 is 24 so 24 will be the numerator...

Then the another 8 is devided by 8 multiply by 5 is 5 so 5 will be the numerator...

Then subtract it...
