Fraction number is the part of a whole number. To substract the fraction numbers, the base denominator of two should be equal.
Given information-
The result of subtraction of a fraction 5/2 with a missing fraction is 1/3.
Suppose the missing fraction is [tex]x[/tex]. Thus the equation can be written as,
[tex]\dfrac{5}{2} -x=\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
Solve it for x,
[tex]-x=\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{5}{2}\\x=\dfrac{5}{2}-\dfrac{1}{3} \\[/tex]
Make the base equal by cross multiplication method,
[tex]x=\dfrac{15-2}{6}\\x=\dfrac{13}{6}[/tex]
Hence the missing fraction is 13/6.
