Fraction Subtraction - Missing Value (Simple) - No Changed Denominator (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on the skill of solving simple fraction subtraction problems where the missing value (variable) must be found, and the denominator remains unchanged. Each problem requires identifying the correct fraction that balances an equation, with the specific aim of finding the missing numerator or the entire fraction. The topic is part of an introductory unit on fraction addition and subtraction, meant to develop foundational skills in handling fractions without altering the denominators.
