Adding fractions:
Lets say you have two fractions like 1/2 and 1/3. To add them, you have to make the denominator the same. So we find the least common multiple of 2 and 3, which is 6, so we multiple 1/2 by 3/3 so we have 3/6 without changing the value, and we multiple 1/3  by 2/2 to have 2/6. Then we add the numerators and have 5/6.

Subtraction fractions:
Same thing as adding, just subtracting instead.
Both need to make sure you have the same denominator.

Multiplying fractions:
This is the most simple. All you do is multiply the numerators and the denominators. So if you have 5/6 and 3/4, you multiply the numerators to have 15, the denominators to have 24, and so you have 15/24, simplified to 5/8.

Dividing fractions:
If you have 5/6 divided by 3/4, you flip the 3/4 to 4/3, and you multiply that with 5/6.

Plums are 6 for $1.50, and a sign by the apples that are 5 for $3.00. What is the total cost of buying 2 plums and 2 apples?
Doss [256]

Answer:

The answer is $1.70

Step-by-step explanation:

If 6 plums are $1.50 you would divide $1.50 by 6 to get the unit cost, $.25. Then you do the same thing for the apples. $3.00 divided by the 5 apples is $.60. Now you need to multiply both unit costs by 2 then add them together to get $1.70

(plums)  $1.50 / 6 = .25

(apples) $3.00 / 5 = .60

(plums)  .25 x 2 = .50

(apples) .60 x 2 = $1.20

$1.20 + .50 = $1.70

Hopefully I could help!!
