You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First of all, finding the sum uses addition, so the problem: $\"5%2F6-3%2F4\"$ will be a \"difference\" problem.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First, in order to find the difference between the two, you need to find a common denominator.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In this case, 6 and 4 are your denominators. You must find a common multiple of these factors. For example,
\n" ); document.write( "4*3=12
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "6*2=12
\n" ); document.write( "therefore, you can see that 12 is a common multiple of each number.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"%282%2F2%29%2A%285%2F6%29-%283%2F3%29%2A%283%2F4%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "= $\"10%2F12-9%2F12\"$
\n" ); document.write( "= $\"highlight%281%2F12%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
