Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. We are dealing with mixed numbers.
2. The fractions have the same denominator.
3. We will subtract the whole numbers and the fractions separately.

STEP 2

1. Separate the mixed numbers into whole numbers and fractions.
2. Subtract the fractions.
3. Subtract the whole numbers.
4. Combine the results.

STEP 3

Separate the mixed numbers into whole numbers and fractions:
5611=5+611 5\frac{6}{11} = 5 + \frac{6}{11} 4511=4+511 4\frac{5}{11} = 4 + \frac{5}{11}

STEP 4

Subtract the fractions:
611511=6511=111 \frac{6}{11} - \frac{5}{11} = \frac{6 - 5}{11} = \frac{1}{11}

STEP 5

Subtract the whole numbers:
54=1 5 - 4 = 1

STEP 6

Combine the results of the whole number and the fraction:
1+111=1111 1 + \frac{1}{11} = 1\frac{1}{11}
The result of the subtraction is:
1111\boxed{1\frac{1}{11}}
