The lessons are arranged to follow the standard sequence of the course. But the order in which you read them can be changed to correspond with the textbook you are now using.
The module is divided into three lessons, namely:
• Lesson 1. Subtracting Simple Fractions Without Regrouping
• Lesson 2. Subtracting Simple Fractions from Mixed Numbers Without Regrouping
• Lesson 3. Subtracting Simple Fractions from Mixed Numbers With Regrouping
After going through this module, you are expected to:
