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! :)

Answer:

D. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

[(p^2) (q^{-3}) ]^{-2}.[(p)^{-3}(q)^5] ^{-2}\\\\=[(p^2) (q^{-3}) \times(p)^{-3}(q)^5 ]^{-2}\\\\=[(p^{2}) \times(p)^{-3} \times (q^{-3}) \times(q)^5 ]^{-2}\\\\=[(p^{2-3}) \times (q^{5-3}) ]^{-2}\\\\=[(p^{-1}) \times (q^{2}) ]^{-2}\\\\=(p^{-1\times (-2)}) \times (q^{2\times (-2) }) \\\\=p^{2}\times q^{-4} \\\\= \frac{p^2}{q^4}\\\\= \frac{(-2)^2}{(-1)^4}\\\\= \frac{4}{1}\\\\= 4
