If you subtract 15 5 3 from 17 3 2 , you will get Options: A . &nbsp156 B . &nbsp167 C . &nbsp176 D . &nbsp186

Answer: Option A : A Let us first convert the mixed fractions 15 5 3 and 17 3 2 to improper fractions. i.e., 15 5 3 = 15 × 3 + 5 3 = 50 3 and 17 3 2 = 17 × 2 + 3 3 = 37 2 Now, 17 3 2 − 15 5 3 = 37 2 − 50 3 = 111 − 100 6 = 11 6 = 1 5 6

If you subtract 1553 from 1732, you will get

Question

If you subtract

15 \frac{5}{3}

from

17 \frac{3}{2}

, you will get

Options:

A . 156

B . 167

C . 176

D . 186

Answer: Option A
:
A
Let us first convert the mixed fractions

15 \frac{5}{3}

and

17 \frac{3}{2}

to improper fractions.
i.e.,

15 \frac{5}{3} = \frac{15 \times 3 + 5}{3} = \frac{50}{3}

and

17 \frac{3}{2} = \frac{17 \times 2 + 3}{3} = \frac{37}{2}

Now,

17 \frac{3}{2} - 15 \frac{5}{3} = \frac{37}{2} - \frac{50}{3} = \frac{111 - 100}{6} = \frac{11}{6} = 1 \frac{5}{6}
