Study Notes
Fractions - Addition
- If denominators are the same, add the numerators
- Example: 1/5 + 3/5 = 4/5
Fractions - Addition (Different Denominators)
- Find the least common denominator (LCD)
- Multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to get the LCD
- Add the resulting numerators
- Example: 1/2 + 3/7 = 7/14 + 6/14 = 13/14
Fractions - Subtraction
- If denominators are the same, subtract the numerators
- Example: 8/9 - 5/9 = 3/9 = 1/3
Fractions - Subtraction (Different Denominators)
- Find the least common denominator (LCD)
- Multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to get the LCD
- Subtract the resulting numerators
- Example: 3/9 - 1/3 = 1/3 - 1/3 = 0
Fractions - Multiplication
- Multiply the numerators and denominators
- Simplify the resulting fraction
- Example: 1/3 x 3/5 = 3/15 = 1/5
Fractions - Division
- Change the division sign to multiplication
- Flip the second fraction (reciprocal)
- Multiply the fractions
- Example: 1/4 ÷ 5/4 = 1/4 x 4/5 = 4/20 = 1/5
