3+1/4=?

you take the fraction and make it as small as you can. (simplify it) since this is already simplified, you combine the 3 and the 1/4.

so 3+1/4=3 1/4.

try this:

19+4/8=

simplify the fraction.

add the fraction to the whole number.

so 4/8 simlified is 1/2.

add that to 19.

so…

19+4/8=19 1/2. got it? if not, email me at [email protected]

2/6 + 4/6 = 6/6 = 1

4/6 + 3/6 = 7/6 = 1 1/6

4/6 + 4/6 = 8/6 = 1 2/6 = 1 1/3

If the numerator ( on the top ) is the same or higher than the denominator ( the bottom ) it will always equal 1 or more.

if you want to make it like this 13/3

you multiply 4 and 3 =12 add 1 = 13 over three

change everything to over 8. -1/8 + 32/8 + 12/8 – 14/8. combine 44/8 -14/8 – 1/8= 29/8 reduce 3 5/8

1.) you need a common denomintor which is 2 cause thats the dnomintaor fro 1/2 so you multiply 7 or 7/1 (same thing) by two, both the top and bottom..that gives you 14/2 so now u hve

1/2 + 14/2 and u keep the denominators the same and get 15/2 and thats ur answer

hope i helped
