Answer:

$\frac{11}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{5}{6} - \frac{3}{8}$

First we need common denominators. What's the least common mulitple of 6 and 8? 24. 6 x (4) = 24 and 8 x (3) = 24

$\frac{5}{6} = \frac{20}{24}$  and $\frac{3}{8} = \frac{9}{24}$

$\frac{20}{24} - \frac{9}{24}$

20 - 9 = 11
