How to add fraction when the denominator is not the same

Description:

Adding fraction when they do have unlike denominators, it may be tricky, but after making the denominator to be the same, then the addition will be a snap. By working using the improper denominators, you should turn them to become improper faction and to make every one of the fraction to be equivalent. It makes everything easy to add the fraction afterwards. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Title: How to add fraction when the denominator is not the same


1
How to add fraction when the denominator is not
the same
2
Working on the improper fraction
Start by finding least common multiple or LCM for
a denominator. This is because it is important to
ensure that the denominator is the same and to
add the fraction afterwards, finding the common
multiple which they are sharing and then go for
the lowest.
3
Multiply a numerator with the denominator in
order to get denominators that look alike. It is
important to multiply an entire fraction in order
to make denominators which may become a least
common multiple.
4
Turn another fraction in its equivalent fraction
and then remember that if you adjust 1 fraction
in the problem, you will need to adjust all other
fraction so that they may become the equivalent
of the original task.
5
You can add the numerator however, you should
leave a denominator alone. When the denominators
have become the same, you should add numerators
and put an answer of a denominator.
6
Simplify or reduce an answer when needed when
the answer is not proper, it is easy to turn a
fraction in the mixed number. In doing this, the
person should divide a numerator using a
denominator in order to get the whole number.
7
He can then see the number of the parts which had
been left and then place such number over a
denominator. A reduced fraction will be
simplified even further.
8
By adding the mixed number
Turn mixed numbers in the improper fraction for
someone who has the fraction with the whole
number, then changing them to become improper
fraction will make everything easy to add. The
numerators of the improper fraction are larger
compared to the denominators.
9
Look for a lowest common denominator when needed
if the denominator is the not the same, the user
will have to write down different multiples of
every denominator in order to find the number
that they are having in common.
10
It is good to make a fraction equivalent in order
to change its denominators. The denominator has
to become lowest common multiple which you can
find. The whole fraction has to be multiplied by
a certain number to get the denominator to become
common multiple but the lowest possible.
11
Changing of the fraction within the problem in
order to make it be equivalent. When another
faction in the equation has many denominators,
the user has to multiply them so that they can
have the same denominator. When the fraction has
its own denominator, you should not adjust its
fraction.
12
Add a numerator so that the denominator can
continue to be one when the denominator is the
same, then it is the right time to add only the
numerators leaving alone the denominators.
