Solve: 4 - 3/7 | Subtracting Fractions from Whole Numbers

To solve this problem, we will follow these steps:

• Step 1: Convert the whole number 4 into a fraction with a denominator of 7.
• Step 2: Subtract the fraction $\frac{3}{7}$ from the converted fraction.
• Step 3: Simplify the resulting fraction and convert it to a mixed number if possible.

Now, let's work through each step:
Step 1: Convert the whole number 4 to a fraction with denominator 7. We multiply the numerator and denominator by 7 to get $\frac{28}{7}$.
Step 2: Subtract the fraction $\frac{3}{7}$ from $\frac{28}{7}$:

$\frac{28}{7} - \frac{3}{7} = \frac{28-3}{7} = \frac{25}{7}$

Step 3: Convert the fraction $\frac{25}{7}$ into a mixed number:

Divide 25 by 7, which gives us a quotient of 3 and a remainder of 4. Thus, the fraction $\frac{25}{7}$ is equivalent to the mixed number $3\frac{4}{7}$.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $3\frac{4}{7}$.
