Algebra.Com's Answer #473583 by wilft1(217)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! when you are adding or subtracting fractions you need to first find the common denominator\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "7 3/4 + 2 2/3\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the lowest common denominator in this case will be 12, you then convert both fractions to that, \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "7 9/12 + 2 8/12\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so lets add...\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "7 9/12 + 2 8/12 = 9 17/12 ---------- 9 17/12 is an improper fraction, so lets fix it\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "10 5/12 you cannot simplify the fraction anymore, so this is your answer :)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
