first let’s just subtract the whole numbers. 13 5/8 -3= 10 5/8
next let’s find the LCM, or least common multiple of the denominators for the fractions. 10 5/8 = 10 15/24
2/3= 16/24
now last, subtract these new fractions.
10 15/24 - 16/24 = 9 23/24

10 15/24 - 16/24 = 9 23/24
13/1 × 5/8 - 3/1 × 2/3
= 13×5 / 1×8 - 3×2 / 1×3
= 65/8 - 6/3
= 195/24 - 48/24
=147/24
=49/8
