[tex]\frac{26 \frac{1}{3} -10 \frac{1}{4}}{2}=\\ \frac{ \frac{79}{3} - \frac{41}{4} }{2} =\\ \frac{ \frac{79}{3} * \frac{4}{4} - \frac{41}{4} * \frac{3}{3} }{2} =\\ \frac{ \frac{356}{12}- \frac{123}{12} }{2} =\\ \frac{ \frac{233}{12} }{2} =\\ \frac{233}{24} =\\ 9\frac{17}{24} [/tex]

9 17/24 inches.

26 1/3 - 10 1/4=16 1/12

16 1/12 divided by 2=8 1/24
