Let's look at an example.
We'll add the fractions 1/6 and 1/8
Before we can add, the denominators must be the same.
To get the denominators to be the same, we can...
- multiply top and bottom of 1/6 by 8 to get 8/48
- multiply top and bottom of 1/8 by 6 to get 6/48
At this point, both fractions involve the denominator 48. We can add the fractions like so
8/48 + 6/48 = (8+6)/48 = 14/48
Add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same the entire time.
The last step is to reduce if possible. In this case, we can reduce. This is because 14 and 48 have the factor 2 in common. Divide each part by 2.
The fraction 14/48 reduces to 7/24
Overall, 1/6 + 1/8 = 7/24
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms. 1/4 and 7/8 are like terms and LCD of 4 and 8 is 8
9/10y and -3/5y are like terms and LCD of 10 , 5 is 10

Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of the equation of an ellipse with major axis on the y axis is given as:

Where (h, k) is the center of the ellipse, (h, k ± a) is the major axis, (h ± b, k) is the minor axis, (h, k ± c) is the foci and c² = a² - b²
Since the minor axis is at (37,0) and (-37,0), hence k = 0, h = 0 and b = 37
Also, the foci is at (0,5) and (0, -5), therefore c = 5
Using c² = a² - b²:
5² = a² - 37²
a² = 37² + 5² = 1369 + 25
a² = 1394
Therefore the equation of the ellipse is:
