about the adding fractions
Answer (1)
To add fractions, they must share a common denominator. If the denominators are the same (like fractions), simply add the numerators and keep the denominator. If the denominators are different (unlike fractions), find a common denominator (often the least common multiple of the denominators), convert the fractions to have this common denominator, then add the numerators and keep the common denominator. Finally, simplify the resulting fraction if possible. SAME DENOMINATOR [tex] \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{3} \\ \frac{1 + 3}{5} = answer \frac{4}{5} [/tex]DIFFERENT DENOMINATOR [tex] \frac{7x1}{7x2} + \frac{3x2}{7x2} \\ \frac{7+6}{14} = \: answer \: \frac{13}{14} [/tex]Sana makatulong sa inyo
