Answer:

The answer is 5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the way I was taught......

multiply the denominators times each other but the numerators have to be changed too they get multiplied by the other term's denominator.

multiply 2x4 and get 8

multiply 1x3 and get 3

Now you got to get a new denominator which is 12

So now that makes the fraction look like this 8/12 - 3/12 which will give you 5/12

I don't know why they taught it to me this way but it's complicated so sorry if you don't get it but I hope you do:)
