 What number should be subtracted from \(\frac{3}{7}\) to get \(\frac{5}{4}\)?

Answer»

Let the number be x to subtracted from 3/7 to get 5/4
So,

\(\frac{3}{7}-x=\frac{5}{4}\\x=\frac{3}{7}-\frac{5}{4}\\x=\frac{(3\times4-5\times7)}{28}\\=\frac{(12-35)}{28}\\=\frac{-23}{28}\)

\(\therefore\)the required number is \(\frac{-23}{28}\)
