Answer: 2/12 (which equals 1/6)
Step-by-step explanation:
first convert 1/4 to 3/12 by multiplying 1/4 with 3/3 because 4x3 is 12 and if you want the fraction to be equivalent you need to multiply using a value of 1.
1/4 = 3/12
now that the denominators are the same, you can subtract across.
3/12 - 1/12 = 2/12
2/12 can be simplified to 1/6.
