5 1/2 - 1 1/3 answer

4 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we can subtract, we have to change the fractions to they have the same denominators. 1/2 becomes 3/6 and 1/3 becomes 2/6. Subtract the converted fractions (3/6-2/6) to get 1/6.

Then, subtract the whole numbers (5-1) to get 4.

Put them together to get 4 1/6.
