How to subtract fractions with unlike denominators and negative answers

The video tutorial explains how to subtract fractions with unlike denominators. It begins with an introduction to the concept of common denominators, followed by two examples. The first example demonstrates subtracting 1/6 from 2/3 by converting them to equivalent fractions with a common denominator. The second example involves subtracting 2/7 from 5/14, highlighting the process of finding a common denominator and simplifying the result. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of keeping the denominator the same while subtracting numerators.
