Step-by-step explanation:

1/12 - 5/6 = -9/12

1st, we need to identify the Least Common Multiplier of 12 and 6

in this case, the LCM is 12

for 5/6 = (5*2) / (6*2) = 10/12

2nd, adjust the fractions based on the LCM

= 1 / 12 ย - ย 10 / 12

= 1 - 10 / 12

= -9 / 12 simplify ย  -3 / 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1/12 - 5/6 = -9/12

We need to get a common denominator of 12

1/12 - 5/6*2/2 = -9 /12

1/12 - 10/12 = -9/12

Since the denominators are the same, we can subtract the numerators

1-10 = -9

-9/12 = - 9/12

We can simplify -9/12 by dividing the top and bottom by 3

-9/3 = -3

12 /3 = 4

-9/12 = -3/4
