    In order to subtract a whole number from a fraction, you first have to turn the hole number into a mixed fraction.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Say your fraction was 2/3 and your whole number was 5.

    They have to have like denominators

    5/1 - 2/3 = 15/3 - 2/3

    15/3 - 2/3 = 13/3

    13/3 = 4 1/3
