Elke lives mile from 1/10school. Haresh lives 2/3 mile from school. How much closer to school does Elke live than Haresh?
Simplify the answer if possible.

Here is an example just like that one.   Steps to solve (steps will be in numerical order)

1. Find the lcd of the fractions  and  . The lcd for both problems will be 12.

2. To rewrite  you have to multiply the numerator and denominator by three since the lcd is 12. So you're new fraction will be . For the second fraction, since the lcd is 12 you will multiply the numerator and denominator by 4. You're new fraction will be .

3. Since the problem contains the math keyword "Further", you automatically know you have to subtract, now subtract  - . First, start of by subtracting the numerators, so subtract 9-8=1 , remember the denominators will always stay the same.

In conclusion, you're answer will be , so Isabel lives  farther away from Janet.
