to subtract dissimilar fractions with whole numbers:
STEP 1:rename the number as a mixed number. Use the denominator to make the fraction similar to the fraction in the subtrahend.
Example: 2=1 + 10/10 = 1 10/10

STEP 2:subtract the fractions
Example: 1 10/10 - 6/10 = 4/10

STEP 3:bring down the whole number.
Example: 1 10/10 - 6/10 = 1 4/10

The easiest way is to transform the terms into an improper fraction, find the LCD to change the denominators into similar fraction then subtract. Its up to you if you transform it back into a proper or mixed number but this is what we usually do on High School. Please rate this as the brainliest answer...
