Subtracting a whole number from a fraction

The video tutorial explains how to subtract a whole number from a fraction by first converting the whole number into a fraction. It emphasizes the importance of having common denominators for fraction operations. The tutorial demonstrates finding the least common multiple of the denominators and converting the whole number into an equivalent fraction. It then walks through the subtraction process, showing how to handle the operation and convert the result into a mixed number. The final answer is presented as a mixed number, with a practical example to illustrate the concept.
