Final: Mixed and Divided

Part of the Factors & Fractions section of Coddy's Pre-Algebra journey. Lesson 53 of 56.

This line divides a mixed number by a fraction and then subtracts a fraction. The mixed number is written as a sum inside parentheses, and the fraction bar shows the division. Work it one step per line until a single fraction is left.

Challenge

Work out $\frac{2+\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{5}{6}}-\frac{1}{3}$ , one step per line. The first part is 2 and 1/2 divided by 5/6.

Try it yourself

\frac{2+\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{5}{6}}-\frac{1}{3}

Simplify
