i think you take the problem and turn it in to a improper fraction. estimate. add. Vola!
First you add the fractions then add the whole numbers I'd you can you can reduce the fractions bye multiplying Hope you have fun!😺🐆💙💎💖🐾
add? dont you mean subtract?
The same way you calculate averages with whole numbers: Add up all the fractions and divide by the number of fractions there are.
6 1/2+ 1 5/6
when you add mixed numbers you have a whole number but adding fraction does not.
1. change the dissimilar fractions to similar fractions by getting the L.C.D or the least common denominator. 2. add the whole numbers and write down the given denominator. 3. reduce the answer to lowest term if possible.
you take away one of the whole number=then you add or subtract your fractions=
yes you do, first you make the denominators the same, then you add the numerator after that you can regroup any "extras" into those whole numbers.
You have to multiply the bottom number by the whole number. then add it to the top number. EX: 1/2+3=7/2
The same way you would add or subtract whole numbers, leaving the denominators alone.
You multiply the denominator by the whole number the add the numerator and you keep the denominator the same.
I personally would convert them to improper fractions, add them and then convert the result back to a mixed number. However, if you want to add the parts separately, it would be better to add the fractions first as this could result in a carry of a whole number to add into the addition of the whole numbers. eg 2 1/3 + 3 5/6 Adding fractions and whole numbers separately: Fractions: 1/3 + 5/6 = 2/6 + 5/6 = 7/6 = 1 + 1/6 = 1/6 + (carry to the whole numbers) Whole numbers: 2 + 3 + (carry) = 2 + 3 + 1 = 6 → 2 1/3 + 3 5/6 = 6 1/6 Done as improper fractions: 2 1/3 + 3 5/6 = (2x3+1)/3 + (3x6+5)/6 = 7/3 + 23/6 = 14/6 + 23/6 = 37/6 = (6x6+1)/6 = 6 1/6
