Subtract fractions from the whole: a math worksheet for practicing fraction subtraction with the number 1.

Let’s solve each problem step by step.

We are subtracting a fraction from 1.
Remember: 1 can be written as any fraction where the numerator and denominator are the same — like 7/7, 11/11, 15/15, etc. That way, we can subtract easily!

---

Problem 1:
1 - 4/7
→ Write 1 as 7/7
→ 7/7 - 4/7 = (7-4)/7 = 3/7

---

Problem 2:
1 - 5/15
→ Write 1 as 15/15
→ 15/15 - 5/15 = (15-5)/15 = 10/15
But we can simplify! Both 10 and 15 divide by 5 → 2/3

*(Wait — let’s check if the worksheet expects simplified answers. Since it doesn’t say, but in math class we usually simplify, I’ll go with simplified form. But let me double-check all problems first.)*

Actually, looking at the other problems, some denominators don’t reduce nicely. Let’s see what makes sense.

For consistency, maybe they want unsimplified? But 10/15 is not fully reduced. Hmm.

Let me look again — perhaps the worksheet just wants the direct subtraction without simplifying? But that would be odd for 5/15.

Wait — 5/15 is already reducible to 1/3, so 1 - 1/3 = 2/3. So probably they expect simplified.

I think safest is to simplify when possible.

So:

1 - 5/15 = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 → 2/3

But wait — if we do 15/15 - 5/15 = 10/15 = 2/3 → same thing.

Okay, I’ll simplify final answers.

Problem 3:
1 - 9/10
→ 10/10 - 9/10 = 1/10 → 1/10

---

Problem 4:
1 - 5/6
→ 6/6 - 5/6 = 1/6 → 1/6

---

Now right column:

Problem 5:
1 - 3/11
→ 11/11 - 3/11 = 8/11 → 8/11

---

Problem 6:
1 - 4/9
→ 9/9 - 4/9 = 5/9 → 5/9

---

Problem 7:
1 - 1/3
→ 3/3 - 1/3 = 2/3 → 2/3

---

Problem 8:
1 - 4/14
First, simplify 4/14 → divide top and bottom by 2 → 2/7
Then 1 - 2/7 = 7/7 - 2/7 = 5/7 → 5/7

Alternatively: 14/14 - 4/14 = 10/14 = 5/7 → same.

So yes, simplify.

Let me list all answers clearly:

Left Column:
1. 1 - 4/7 = 3/7
2. 1 - 5/15 = 2/3 (since 10/15 reduces)
3. 1 - 9/10 = 1/10
4. 1 - 5/6 = 1/6

Right Column:
5. 1 - 3/11 = 8/11
6. 1 - 4/9 = 5/9
7. 1 - 1/3 = 2/3
8. 1 - 4/14 = 5/7

Wait — problem 2: 1 - 5/15. If we leave it as 10/15, is that acceptable? In many elementary worksheets, they might accept either, but since 5/15 simplifies to 1/3, and 1 - 1/3 = 2/3, I think 2/3 is better.

Similarly, problem 8: 4/14 simplifies to 2/7, so answer is 5/7.

I think these are correct.

Let me verify one more time:

- 1 - 4/7 = 3/7 ✔
- 1 - 5/15 = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 ✔
- 1 - 9/10 = 1/10 ✔
- 1 - 5/6 = 1/6 ✔
- 1 - 3/11 = 8/11 ✔
- 1 - 4/9 = 5/9 ✔
- 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 ✔
- 1 - 4/14 = 1 - 2/7 = 5/7 ✔

All good.

Final Answer:
3/7, 2/3, 1/10, 1/6, 8/11, 5/9, 2/3, 5/7

But how to present? The worksheet has boxes. Probably list them in order.

Since the user didn't specify format, I'll write them as pairs or in sequence.

Looking back at the image layout:

Left side (top to bottom):
1 - 4/7 = ?
1 - 5/15 = ?
1 - 9/10 = ?
1 - 5/6 = ?

Right side (top to bottom):
1 - 3/11 = ?
1 - 4/9 = ?
1 - 1/3 = ?
1 - 4/14 = ?

So answers in that order:

Left: 3/7, 2/3, 1/10, 1/6
Right: 8/11, 5/9, 2/3, 5/7

I think that's it.
