Question

which of the following is the best answer choice for 11 6/7 minus 5 1/3

Answer 1

6 11/21

Find the common denominator in this case 21 so multiply 6/7 by 3 to get 18/21. Then multiply 1/3 by 7 to get 7/21. Subtract 7/21 from 18/21 to get 11/21. Then subtract 5 from 11 to get 6. That brings you to your answer 6 11/21.
