Multiply the numerator and denominator of one of the fractions by the denominator of the other. In this example :


8 (numerator) * 15 (denominator of other fraction) / 11 (denominator) * 15 (denominator of other fraction) -> (8*15)/(11*15) -> 120/165

120/165 - (4*11)/(15*11) -> 120/165 - 44/165 -> (120-44)/165 ->


76/165
