Subtracting Mixed Numbers with Like Denominators Using a Number Line

This video tutorial teaches how to subtract mixed numbers with like denominators using a number line. It begins with a review of mixed numbers using an area model and highlights common mistakes, such as confusing 1 and 2/4 with 12/4. The lesson then demonstrates subtraction using a number line, emphasizing the importance of order in subtraction. Two example problems are solved: subtracting 2/5 from 2 and 3/5, and subtracting 1 and 2/10 from 3 and 6/10, illustrating the process and resulting differences.
