Question

question 3/4
what is 10/12 - 5/12?

a. 7/12
b. 5/12
c. 6/12

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract numerators (same denominator)

For fractions with the same denominator, we subtract the numerators and keep the denominator. So, \( \frac{10}{12} - \frac{5}{12} = \frac{10 - 5}{12} \)

Step2: Calculate numerator difference

Calculate \( 10 - 5 = 5 \), so the result is \( \frac{5}{12} \)

Answer:

B. 5/12
