ADDITION OF FRACTION MATHEMATICS 7
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: + = + = + = = 2
ADDITION OF FRACTIONS SIMILAR FRACTION , , and , , same denominator DISSIMILAR FRACTION different denominator MIXED NUMBER 3 and Whole number with fraction.
Adding Similar Fraction Similar fractions are fractions that have the same denominator. , , and , , same denominator Take note that fractions can be added only when these fractions are similar fractions. To add like fractions (fractions with the same denominator) add the numerators and write the sum over the denominator. If a, b and c denote integers, and b ≠ 0, then
Examples 1. 2.
Adding Dissimilar Fractions Dissimilar fractions are fractions with different denominators. Below are examples of dissimilar fractions . different denominator Dissimilar fractions cannot be added directly . First, you need to convert dissimilar fractions to similar fractions.
Steps in Adding Fractions With different denominators, and , where b ≠ 0 and d ≠ 0, Rename the fractions to make them similar which denominator is the least common multiple of b and d. Add the numerators of the resulting fractions. Write the result as a fraction whose numerator is the sum of the numerators and which denominator is the least common multiple of b and d.
E xamples _______ LCM of 5 and 4 is 20. The LCD is 20 . _______ LCM of 3 and 4 is 12. The LCD is 12 .
Adding Mixed Numbers Mixed Numbers are quantities that have a whole number part and a fraction part. Below are examples of mixed fractions. 3 and Steps in Adding Mixed Numbers Find the LCD of the fractions in the mixed numbers to make them similar fractions. Add the whole numbers and the similar fractions. Simplify if the resulting fraction is improper fraction.
