To subtract mixed numbers, we need to convert them to improper fractions.
24 1/10 can be written as an improper fraction by multiplying the whole number (24) by the denominator (10) and then adding the numerator (1). So, 24 1/10 can be converted to (24 * 10 + 1)/10 = 241/10.
Similarly, 5 9/11 can be converted to an improper fraction as follows: (5 * 11 + 9)/11 = 64/11.
Now, we can subtract the two fractions:
241/10 - 64/11
To find a common denominator, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of 10 and 11, which is 110.
Multiplying the numerator and denominator of 241/10 by 11, we get: (241 * 11)/(10 * 11) = 2651/110.
Multiplying the numerator and denominator of 64/11 by 10, we get: (64 * 10)/(11 * 10) = 640/110.
Now, we can subtract the fractions:
(2651/110) - (640/110) = (2651 - 640)/110 = 2011/110.
Therefore, 24 1/10 - 5 9/11 = 2011/110.
To solve this problem, we will first convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
For 24 1/10, we multiply the whole number (24) by the denominator of the fraction (10) and add the numerator (1). This gives us (24 * 10 + 1) / 10 = 241/10.
Similarly, for 5 9/11, we multiply the whole number (5) by the denominator of the fraction (11) and add the numerator (9). This gives us (5 * 11 + 9) / 11 = 64/11.
Now we can subtract the two fractions: 241/10 - 64/11.
To subtract fractions with different denominators, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, the least common multiple (LCM) of 10 and 11 is 110.
We can convert the fractions to have a common denominator of 110:
241/10 * 11/11 = 2411/110
64/11 * 10/10 = 640/110
Now our equation becomes: 2411/110 - 640/110.
Subtracting the fractions gives us: (2411 - 640) / 110 = 1771/110.
Therefore, the solution to 24 1/10 - 5 9/11 is 1771/110.
