    Danny and Sam are training for a race. In 5 minutes, Danny is able to run  5 8  of a mile. Sam is able to run  3 8  of a mile. How far is Danny from Sam after 5 minutes?
    ::Danny和Sam正在训练比赛 5分钟后 Danny就能跑580英里

    In this concept, you will learn about subtracting fractions with  like denominators .
    ::在此概念中, 您将学习如何以类似分母来减分数 。

    Subtracting Fractions with Like Denominators
    ::与类似分数器的减法分数

    You can also subtract fractions with  common denominators  - that is, fractions with denominators that are the same. As long as the denominators are the same, you can find the  difference  by subtracting the numerators.
    ::您也可以用共同分母来减去分母,即分母与分母相同。只要分母相同,您可以通过减去分子来找到差异。

    Here are two fractions. The fractions have a  common denominator , 8. Each whole is divided into 8 parts.
    ::这是两个分数。 分数有一个共同的分母, 8 。 每个整体分为八个部分 。

    Here is a subtraction problem with the two fractions.
    ::这是两个部分的减法问题 。

    6 8 3 8 = _

    To solve this problem, find the difference of the numerators over the common denominator.
    ::为了解决这个问题, 找到点数对共同分母的区别 。

    6 3 = 3

    3 8

    Then, write the fraction in  simplest form . The   (GCF) of 3 and 8 is 1. The fraction is in simplest form.
    ::然后以最简单的形式写出分数。 3和8的( GCF) 是 1 。 分数是最简单的形式 。

    Therefore, the difference  is  3 8 .
    ::因此,差别是3 8。

    Examples
    ::实例

    Example 1
    ::例1

    Earlier, you were given a problem about Danny and Sam, who are training for a race.
    ::早些时候,你被问及丹尼和山姆的问题, 他们正在参加比赛的训练。

    In 5 minutes, Danny can run  5 8  mile and Sam can run  3 8  mile. Find the difference to see how much farther Danny will be after 5 minutes. 
    ::5分钟后,丹尼可以跑58英里,山姆可以跑38英里。

    5 8 3 8 = _

    First, check if the fractions have common denominators. Both are 8.
    ::首先,检查分数是否有共同的分母。这两个分母都是8个。

    Then, subtract the fractions. Find the difference of the numerators over the common denominator.
    ::然后,减去分数。找出在共同分母上点数的差数。

      5 3 = 2

      2 8

    Next,  simplify  the fraction. The GCF of 2 and 8 is 2.  Divide  the  numerator  and the  denominator  by 2. 
    ::接下来,简化分数。全球合作框架2和8是2,分子和分母除以2。

       2 ÷ 2 8 ÷ 2 = 1 4

    Danny will be  1 4  of a mile farther than Sam.
    ::丹尼将比山姆远14英里

    Example 2
    ::例2
