Last question for today: 10 2/3 - 8 9/12

please, explain, it would help me out more!

The answer is 1 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First you could convert both of them to improper fractions, then you could get them to a common denominator and the least common denominator for these two fractions would be 12 so you would multiply the fraction 10 2/3 so that they both have the same denominator then you would subtract them then you would make the answer a proper fraction again so your answer would be 1 11/12

10 2/3 = 32/3 times 4 = 128/12

8 9/12 = 105/12

128/12 - 105/12 = 23/12 = 1 11/12
