A simple video showing how to subtract fractions with common denominators. The denominators is the bottom number of a fraction and the numerator is the top number. So in the fraction of one half 1 is the numerator and 2 is the denominator. If you have fractions with same denominator you can subtract the numerators to find the difference.
