11/16-1/4

Let's calculate: $\frac{11}{16}-\frac{1}{4}$

ⓘ Add fractions by using a common denominator and then adding their numerators. We choose $16$, the least common multiple of $16$ and $4$. Multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the same number does not change the fraction: $\frac{11}{16}-\frac{1}{4}$ = $\frac{11}{16}-\frac{1\times 4}{4\times 4}$ = $\frac{11-1\times 4}{16}$

$\frac{11-1\times 4}{16}$

ⓘ Perform multiplications before additions and subtractions: $1\times 4$ = $4$

$\frac{11-4}{16}$

ⓘ Calculate the numerator and denominator before dividing: $11-4$ = $7$

▶Result:   $\frac{7}{16}$

The numeric value of: $\frac{7}{16}$ is:

▷ $0.4375$
