Can you work out what those fractions would be?
OpenStudy (jalil.h):
9 times 3 27
OpenStudy (jalil.h):
9 times 4 36
OpenStudy (cecil_the_weasel):
nice so the first fraction is 36/27
OpenStudy (jalil.h):
the other one is 21/27

Awesome! So now that the denominators are the same, subtract the numerators. (Remember that denominator stays as 27)
OpenStudy (jalil.h):
15/27
OpenStudy (cecil_the_weasel):
Right. Now you need to simplify. What number goes into both 15 and 27?
