Question

What will be the difference between $\frac{75}{36}$ and $\frac{30}{16}?$

• A. $$\frac{11}{24}$$
• B. $$\frac{7}{16}$$
• C. $$\frac{10}{41}$$
• D. $$\frac{5}{24}$$

Answer 1

Answer:

$$\frac{5}{24}$$

Solution:

Difference = $\frac{75}{36}-\frac{30}{16}$

$= \frac{25}{12}-\frac{15}{8}$

LCM of 12, 8 is 24

$=\frac{(50-45)}{24}=\frac{5}{24}$

Hence option (D) is correct answer.
