once again i ask... you need answer or method?
method
if you only need the answer, it is \[\frac{1}{24}\] method is to wrote both fractions with the same denominator, because that is the only way you can add or subtract fractions, if the denominators are th same
in this case you can write them both with a denominator of 24 because both 12 and 24 divide 24 evenly (it is the "least common multiple")
so now we take \[\frac{7}{12}\] and rewrite it so the denominator is 24 \[\frac{7}{12}=\frac{2\times 7}{2\times 12}=\frac{14}{24}\]

and finally \[\frac{15}{24}-\frac{14}{24}=\frac{15-14}{24}=\frac{1}{24}\]
Thank you.
