[tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Since the denominators of both fractions are common , that is 6

To subtract, subtract the numerators leaving the denominator

[tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5-3}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex]

This fraction may be simplified by dividing the numerator/ denominator by 2

[tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] ← in simplest form
