How to add fractions? with unlike denominators

Mathematics
1 answer:
stellarik [79]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The recipe calls for 19/12 or 1 7/9 cups.


Step-by-step:

In order to get this answer, we have to add all three fractions together. First, we have to find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) between the three denominators:

2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12

3: 3,6,9,12

4: 4,8,12

The LCM between these three denominators is 12.

4x3=12

2x6=12

3x4=12

You now multiply the numerator by the same number you multiplied by for the denominator in order to get 12:

3/4 becomes 9/12

1/2 becomes 6/12

1/3 becomes 4/12

We now add all the fractions together:

9/12+6/12+4/12= 19/12

We got 19/12 but the answer is an improper fraction so we turn it into a mixed number:

12x1=12 (7 remaining)

This is written as 1 7/12.

Hope this helps! :)

4 corners again<br> -9a + 3b - a + 7b - 13 + a - 10<br> Sorry for the questions pls help
eimsori [14]

Answer:−9a+10b−23

Step-by-step explanation:−9a+3b−a+7b−13+a−10

Combine −9a and −a to get −10a.

−10a+3b+7b−13+a−10

Combine 3b and 7b to get 10b.

−10a+10b−13+a−10

Combine −10a and a to get −9a.

−9a+10b−13−10

Subtract 10 from −13 to get −23.

−9a+10b−23
