Questions and Answers

What is the result of adding two fractions with the same denominator?

  • The numerators are added together. (correct)
  • The denominators remain unchanged. (correct)
  • The denominators are multiplied together.
  • The result is simplified by subtracting the numerators.
  • What must be done when adding fractions with different denominators?

  • Find a common denominator and adjust the fractions. (correct)
  • Ignore the denominators and only add the numerators.
  • Use the larger denominator as the new denominator.
  • Add the denominators directly.
  • What is the correct formula for subtracting two fractions with different denominators?

  • $ \frac{a}{b} - \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a - c}{b - d} $
  • $ \frac{a}{b} - \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a - c}{b + d} $
  • $ \frac{a}{b} - \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot d + b \cdot c}{b \cdot d} $

    Phân Số

    Định nghĩa

    • Phân số là biểu thức dạng a/b, trong đó a (tử số) và b (mẫu số) là các số nguyên, b khác 0.

    Cộng Phân Số

    • Công thức:
      • Cộng hai phân số cùng mẫu:
        ( \frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{b} = \frac{a+c}{b} )
      • Cộng hai phân số khác mẫu:
        ( \frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot d + b \cdot c}{b \cdot d} )
    • Bước thực hiện:
      1. Đối với phân số cùng mẫu, cộng tử số.
      2. Đối với phân số khác mẫu, tìm mẫu chung (b * d), quy đồng hai phân số, sau đó cộng tử số.

    Trừ Phân Số

    • Công thức:
      • Trừ hai phân số cùng mẫu:
        ( \frac{a}{b} - \frac{c}{b} = \frac{a-c}{b} )
      • Trừ hai phân số khác mẫu:
        ( \frac{a}{b} - \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot d - b \cdot c}{b \cdot d} )
    • Bước thực hiện:
      1. Đối với phân số cùng mẫu, trừ tử số.
      2. Đối với phân số khác mẫu, tìm mẫu chung (b * d), quy đồng hai phân số, sau đó trừ tử số.

    Lưu ý

    • Khi thực hiện phép cộng và trừ, cần rút gọn phân số kết quả nếu có thể.
    • Luôn luôn kiểm tra xem mẫu số có khác 0 hay không trước khi thực hiện phép toán.

    Definition of Fractions

    • A fraction is expressed in the form a/b, where a (numerator) and b (denominator) are integers, and b cannot be zero.

    Adding Fractions

    • Formula for Addition:

      • For fractions with the same denominator:
        ( \frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{b} = \frac{a+c}{b} )
      • For fractions with different denominators:
        ( \frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot d + b \cdot c}{b \cdot d} )
    • Step-by-Step Process:

      • For fractions sharing the same denominator, simply add their numerators.
      • For fractions with different denominators, find a common denominator (b * d), rewrite both fractions with this common denominator, then add their numerators.

    Subtracting Fractions

    • Formula for Subtraction:

      • For fractions with the same denominator:
        ( \frac{a}{b} - \frac{c}{b} = \frac{a-c}{b} )
      • For fractions with different denominators:
        ( \frac{a}{b} - \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot d - b \cdot c}{b \cdot d} )
    • Step-by-Step Process:

      • For fractions with the same denominator, subtract the numerators.
      • For fractions with different denominators, find a common denominator (b * d), rewrite both fractions accordingly, then subtract the numerators.

    Important Notes

    • Always simplify the resulting fraction if possible after addition or subtraction.
    • Verify that the denominator is not zero before performing any operations.
